Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of washing machine technology, and more specifically, relates to a washing device. Background Technology

[0002] As people's living standards continue to improve, more and more consumers are inclined to buy a second washing machine, specifically for the meticulous sorting and washing of underwear and small items of clothing, to ensure that their clothes receive more careful and hygienic treatment.

[0003] These washing machines are designed to be small and compact to accommodate the washing needs of small items of clothing. To achieve precise sorting and washing of clothes, two drums are required for separate washing. However, since these washing machines are often placed on the countertop or tabletop of a front-loading washing machine, their height design is particularly important. It needs to be kept within a reasonable range that is both convenient for user operation and ensures the stability of the equipment, to avoid operational inconvenience or safety hazards caused by improper height.

[0004] Chinese Patent Application No. 202010973133.2 discloses a twin-drum washing machine, including a washing machine body. The washing machine body includes a frame, a drum, a first shock absorber, and at least two suspension rods. The drum includes an upper drum and a lower drum, with the upper drum located directly above the lower drum. One end of the first shock absorber is fixedly installed on the frame, and the other end is fixedly installed on the lower drum. The first shock absorber is used to support the lower drum and reduce the vibration it generates. One end of each suspension rod is fixedly installed on the frame, and the other end is fixedly installed on the upper drum, so that the upper drum is suspended within the frame. In this application, the upper drum is located directly above the lower drum, which results in excessive height, leading to instability of the washing machine's center of gravity during operation and a risk of tipping over. Furthermore, it causes inconvenience to the user's daily operation, affecting the comfort and convenience of the user experience.

[0005] For another type of washing machine that uses two inner drums arranged side by side, when the washing machine is placed on a countertop, it is inconvenient to view and load or unload clothes because the drum openings face upwards; in addition, the layout of the two drums placed side by side increases the overall width of the washing machine, occupies more space, and cannot be reduced in width.

[0006] In view of this, the present invention is proposed. Summary of the Invention

[0007] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a washing device that installs two sets of drum assemblies side by side with staggered positioning, thereby reducing space occupation and improving the overall stability of the drum washing machine.

[0008] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the basic concept of the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows:

[0009] The present invention provides a washing device having at least two sets of tub assemblies, each set of tub assemblies having a loading port facing forward and horizontally or inclined upward;

[0010] The frame contains two sets of cylindrical assemblies installed side-by-side with staggered positioning. The height difference between the rotation axes of the two sets of cylindrical assemblies is less than the diameter of either cylindrical assembly.

[0011] Furthermore, each cylinder assembly includes: a cylinder body and a vibration damper, wherein the vibration damper is used to dampen the cylinder body when it is installed within the frame.

[0012] The frame is equipped with a reinforcing member inside, and at least one of the vibration damping members provided on each cylinder is installed on the reinforcing member;

[0013] Preferably, each of the two cylindrical assemblies has at least one vibration damping element mounted on the same reinforcing member.

[0014] Furthermore, a set of reinforcing members is provided inside the frame, located between the two sets of cylindrical assemblies;

[0015] The cylindrical body includes a first cylindrical body and a second cylindrical body, wherein the first cylindrical body is located diagonally below the second cylindrical body;

[0016] At least two adjacent vibration damping components of the first upper cylinder and the second lower cylinder are mounted on the reinforcing member.

[0017] Furthermore, the reinforcing member is a longitudinal support structure, with its two ends respectively installed on the front and rear frames of the frame.

[0018] Furthermore, the reinforcing member is a transverse support structure, with its two ends respectively installed on the left and right frames of the frame;

[0019] The upper vibration damping component of the first cylinder and the lower vibration damping component of the second cylinder are mounted on the reinforcing member.

[0020] Furthermore, the frame is provided with two sets of reinforcing members, respectively located at the top and bottom of the frame.

[0021] At least two of the upper vibration damping components of the first and second cylinders located on the inner side are mounted on the top reinforcement;

[0022] At least two of the lower damping components of the first and second cylinders, located on the inner side, are mounted on the bottom reinforcement.

[0023] Furthermore, at least one of the upper damping components of the first cylinder located on the inner side is mounted on the top reinforcement; at least one of the lower damping components of the second cylinder located on the inner side is mounted on the bottom reinforcement.

[0024] Furthermore, the reinforcing member located at the top extends longitudinally within the frame and is mounted on the top skeleton of the frame; or, its two ends are mounted on the front and rear skeletons of the frame.

[0025] Furthermore, the reinforcing member located at the bottom extends longitudinally within the frame and is installed on the bottom skeleton of the frame; or, its two ends are installed on the front and rear skeletons of the frame.

[0026] Furthermore, at least one reinforcing member has a Z-shaped structure or an inverse Z-shaped structure, including:

[0027] Two horizontal sections with a height difference between them; one horizontal section is connected to a vibration damping component of a cylinder assembly, and the other horizontal section is connected to a vibration damping component of another cylinder assembly.

[0028] An inclined section is located between two horizontal sections to connect the two horizontal sections;

[0029] Preferably, the reinforcing member is an integral structure.

[0030] By adopting the above technical solution, the present invention has the following beneficial effects compared with the prior art.

[0031] 1. The washing equipment of the present invention can save space and enhance the stability of the use process in its overall design; the dual-drum design provides more washing capacity, bringing users a more convenient, efficient and comfortable washing experience.

[0032] 2. The washing device of the present invention has two sets of drum assemblies installed side by side and staggered in the frame, and achieves maximum utilization in a limited space while ensuring that the height difference of the rotation axis is less than the diameter of the drum of any one of the drum assemblies; it not only reduces the overall volume of the device, but also improves the washing efficiency, and is suitable for use in space-constrained environments.

[0033] 3. In the washing equipment of the present invention, each drum assembly is equipped with vibration damping components. These vibration damping components effectively reduce the vibration transmitted from the drum to the frame during operation, thereby reducing the noise and vibration of the equipment during operation, improving the user experience, and extending the service life of the equipment.

[0034] 4.

[0035] 5. In the washing equipment of the present invention, the reinforcing member can be designed to extend longitudinally or laterally as needed. This flexibility allows the reinforcing member to be adjusted according to different models of washing machines and installation requirements, thereby optimizing the installation effect and stability.

[0036] 6. The reinforcing members in the washing equipment of the present invention adopt a Z-shaped or reverse Z-shaped structure, which not only enhances the stability of the structure but also further optimizes the spatial layout of the equipment; while maintaining structural strength, it reduces the amount of material used and lowers production costs.

Therefore, they should not be construed as limiting this invention.

[0050] In the description of this invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "linking" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention based on the specific circumstances.

[0051] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, the present invention provides a washing device, which is provided with at least two sets of drum assemblies, each set of drum assemblies having a loading port that faces forward horizontally or tilted upward.

[0052] The frame 100 has two sets of cylindrical assemblies installed side by side with staggered positioning within it. The height difference between the rotation axes of the two sets of cylindrical assemblies is less than the diameter of either cylindrical assembly.

[0053] In this embodiment, the washing equipment is equipped with at least two drum assemblies. These two drum assemblies can be of the same size or different sizes. Each drum assembly can operate independently, allowing users to choose between single-drum or dual-drum washing as needed, increasing washing capacity. It also allows users to sort and wash clothes according to type, color, or material, effectively preventing cross-staining or wear and tear. Each drum assembly has a horizontal or upward-sloping loading port facing forward, allowing users to easily load clothes without bending over or straining, which is especially convenient for people with mobility issues. The upward-sloping design also helps reduce water splashing during the washing process, keeping the environment clean.

[0054] The frame 100, serving as the supporting and housing structure for the entire washing machine, is made of sturdy and durable materials, such as high-quality metal or high-strength plastic, to ensure the stability and durability of the washing machine. The interior of the frame 100 is designed with a rational spatial layout to accommodate and separate two independent washing drums.

[0055] In this embodiment, two sets of drum assemblies are installed side-by-side with a staggered arrangement within the frame 100. One set of drum assemblies is positioned diagonally above the other. This layout effectively utilizes the space within the frame 100, making the washing machine more compact in the vertical direction, facilitating storage and use. More importantly, there is a certain height difference between the rotation axes of the two sets of drum assemblies, and this height difference is less than the diameter of either drum assembly; this ensures that the two sets of drum assemblies will not interfere with each other during rotation, guaranteeing a smooth washing process.

[0056] Furthermore, each set of cylinder assemblies includes: a cylinder body and a vibration damping component, wherein the vibration damping component is used to dampen the cylinder body when it is installed within the frame 100;

[0057] The frame 100 is provided with a reinforcing member 400 inside, and at least one of the vibration damping members provided on each cylinder is installed on the reinforcing member 400;

[0058] Preferably, each of the two cylindrical assemblies has at least one vibration damping element mounted on the same reinforcing member 400.

[0059] In this embodiment, each cylinder assembly includes a cylinder body and a vibration damper. One end of the vibration damper is connected to the upper or lower part of the cylinder body, and the other end is connected to the frame 100 to reduce the vibration transmitted from the cylinder body to the frame 100.

[0060] Specifically, the vibration damping component located at the upper part of the drum is a tension spring, with its lower end connected to the drum and its upper end connected to the frame 100; the vibration damping component located at the lower part of the drum is a vibration damper, with its upper end connected to the drum and its lower end connected to the frame 100. When the washing equipment is running, the vibration generated by the high-speed rotation of the drum is transmitted to the frame 100 through the vibration damping component. During the transmission process, the vibration is reduced by the vibration damping component to ensure the stable operation of the equipment.

[0061] In this embodiment, a reinforcing member 400 is provided inside the frame 100. The reinforcing member 400 is made of a sturdy and durable material and has good load-bearing capacity and stability. Among the vibration damping members provided on each cylinder, at least one vibration damping member is installed on the reinforcing member 400 provided inside the frame 100. This increases the stability of the cylinder installation and strengthens the connection between the cylinder and the frame 100, thereby improving the overall stability and durability of the equipment.

[0062] Furthermore, a set of reinforcing members 400 are provided inside the frame 100, located between the two sets of cylindrical assemblies;

[0063] The cylinder includes a first cylinder 200 and a second cylinder 300, wherein the first cylinder 200 is located diagonally below the second cylinder 300;

[0064] At least two adjacent vibration damping members of the upper part of the first cylinder 200 and the lower part of the second cylinder 300 are mounted on the reinforcing member 400.

[0065] In this embodiment, a set of reinforcing members 400 is provided inside the frame 100. These reinforcing members 400 are located between the two drum assemblies and serve to connect and support the drum assemblies and the frame 100. The specific structure and number of reinforcing members 400 can be designed according to the size and weight of the washing machine to ensure sufficient support. In addition, depending on the actual application, the reinforcing members 400 are made of metal, such as stainless steel or aluminum alloy, to improve their durability and load-bearing capacity.

[0066] In this embodiment, the drum includes two washing spaces: a first drum 200 and a second drum 300. The first drum 200 is located diagonally below the second drum 300, effectively utilizing the space within the frame 100 and facilitating different washing functions or partitioning. Simultaneously, both the first drum 200 and the second drum 300 are equipped with vibration damping components, effectively reducing vibrations generated during rotation while supporting the drum within the frame 100. A reinforcing member 400 is provided inside the frame 100 and between the first drum 200 and the second drum 300, with at least two inner adjacent vibration damping components from the upper part of the first drum 200 and the lower part of the second drum 300 mounted on the reinforcing member 400.

[0067] Furthermore, the reinforcing member 400 extends longitudinally within the frame 100, with its two ends respectively mounted on the front and rear frames of the frame 100.

[0068] In this embodiment, the reinforcing member 400 extends longitudinally inside the frame 100, with its two ends respectively mounted on the front and rear frames of the frame 100. The rear frame corresponds to the front frame, together forming the main frame of the frame 100. The installation of the reinforcing member 400 at the rear end further stabilizes the rear structure of the entire device, making the entire frame 100 more stable and reliable during operation.

[0069] Specifically, the upper parts of the first drum 200 and the second drum 300 are respectively connected to a first spring 210 and a second spring 310; the lower parts of the first drum 200 and the second drum 300 are respectively connected to a first vibration damper 220 and a second vibration damper 320. The springs and vibration dampers are both vibration damping components. The installation of the springs and vibration dampers can reduce the vibration and noise generated by the washing machine during operation, improving user comfort and stability. At least two of the first springs 210 and the second vibration dampers 320 located on the inner side are mounted on the reinforcing member 400. This mounting method helps to disperse vibrations throughout the entire washing machine body, thereby further reducing vibration amplitude and noise levels.

[0070] More specifically, such as Figure 1 As shown, if the first cylinder 200 is located to the lower left of the second cylinder 300, the right side of the first spring 210 and the left side of the second damper 320 are mounted on the reinforcing member 400. For other damping components on the first cylinder 200, the left side of the first spring 210 is fixed to the left side of the frame 100, the left side of the first damper 220 is fixed to the left side or bottom frame of the frame 100, and the right side of the first damper 220 is fixed to the bottom of the frame 100. For other damping components on the second cylinder 300, the left side of the second spring 310 is fixed to the top frame of the frame 100, the right side of the second spring 310 is fixed to the right side or top frame of the frame 100, and the right side of the second damper 320 is fixed to the right side frame of the frame 100.

[0071] Furthermore, the reinforcing member 400 extends laterally within the frame 100, with its two ends respectively mounted on the left and right skeletons of the frame 100.

[0072] The upper vibration damping member of the first cylinder 200 and the lower vibration damping member of the second cylinder 300 are mounted on the reinforcing member 400.

[0073] In this embodiment, the reinforcing member 400 extends laterally within the frame 100, and its two ends are fixedly installed on the left and right frames of the frame 100, respectively.

[0090] The above are just a few examples illustrating the installation of the cylinder inside the frame 100 and the installation methods of each vibration damping component with the frame 100 and the reinforcing component 400. In actual installation and use, the components can be combined and installed according to specific needs.

[0091] Furthermore, at least one of the reinforcing members 400 is a Z-shaped structure or an inverted Z-shaped structure, including:

[0092] Two horizontal sections, with a height difference between the two horizontal sections;

[0093] An inclined section is provided between two horizontal sections to connect the two horizontal sections. One horizontal section is connected to the damping component of one cylinder assembly, and the other horizontal section is connected to the damping component of another cylinder assembly.

[0094] Preferably, the reinforcing member 400 is an integral structure.

[0095] In this embodiment, the reinforcing member 400 is designed as a Z-shaped or inverse Z-shaped structure, including two horizontal sections and an inclined section. The two horizontal sections are located at opposite ends of the reinforcing member 400, with a height difference between them, allowing the reinforcing member 400 to provide support at different height levels, thereby more effectively resisting forces and vibrations from different directions. The inclined section is located between the two horizontal sections, serving to connect them. The presence of the inclined section makes the reinforcing member 400 structurally more stable and able to more effectively distribute and resist external loads.

[0096] When one reinforcing member 400 is provided inside the frame 100, the reinforcing member has a Z-shaped structure. The upper horizontal portion of the reinforcing member 400 connects to at least one of the upper damping members of the lower cylinder assembly, and the lower horizontal portion connects to at least one of the lower damping members of the upper cylinder assembly. When two reinforcing members 100 are provided, the two reinforcing members 100 have an inverted Z-shaped structure. The upper horizontal portion of the reinforcing member 100 at the top of the frame 100 connects to at least one of the upper damping members of the upper cylinder, and the lower horizontal portion connects to at least one of the upper damping members of the lower cylinder. The upper horizontal portion of the reinforcing member 100 at the bottom of the frame 100 connects to at least one of the damping members on the lower side of the upper cylinder assembly, and the lower horizontal portion connects to at least one of the lower damping members of the lower cylinder assembly.

[0097] As a preferred embodiment, the reinforcing member 400 is a one-piece structure, meaning that the entire reinforcing member 400 is manufactured from a single material through continuous processing, without any additional connectors or welds. This one-piece structure design improves the overall strength and rigidity of the reinforcing member 400, reduces potential problems caused by loose connectors or weld cracking; at the same time, the one-piece structure also simplifies the manufacturing process and improves production efficiency.

[0098] During assembly, the reinforcing member 400 must first be installed inside the frame 100 according to the predetermined layout. Then, the first cylinder 200, the second cylinder 300, and their respective springs and vibration dampers are installed sequentially. During installation, attention must be paid to the fit and fixing methods between the components to ensure stability and reliability.
