[0038] In related technologies, clothing processing equipment requires spin-drying during the washing process, which results in significant drum vibration. Existing technologies incorporate vibration dampers at the bottom of the drum to reduce vibration transmitted to the equipment casing. However, uneven distribution of clothing inside the drum leads to eccentricity, perpetuating the problem of excessive drum vibration during spin-drying.

[0039] The following is for reference. Figures 1-6 A garment processing apparatus 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention is described.

[0040] like Figure 1 As shown, the garment processing device 1 according to the present invention includes: an outer cylinder 10, a vibration damping structure 20, a connecting rod 30, and an anti-rotation structure. One end of the vibration damping structure 20 is hinged to the outer cylinder 10 and is configured as a plurality of spaced-apart structures. The connecting rod 30 connects at least two vibration damping structures 20. The anti-rotation structure is disposed on the connecting rod 30 and is adapted to cooperate with the outer cylinder 10 and / or the vibration damping structure 20 to limit the rotation of the connecting rod 30 relative to the outer cylinder 10 and / or limit the rotation of the connecting rod 30 along its own axial direction. Specifically, when the garment processing device 1 is working, the outer cylinder 10 will vibrate, and the vibration will generate noise. The vibration damping structure 20 connected to the outer cylinder 10 can reduce the vibration amplitude of the outer cylinder 10, thereby reducing the noise transmitted to the outside of the garment processing device 1. When there are multiple vibration damping structures 20, the multiple vibration damping structures 20 are connected to different positions on the garment processing equipment 1. The vibration damping amplitude of each vibration damping structure 20 may be different. Therefore, a connecting rod 30 is designed. The connecting rod 30 is connected to at least two vibration damping structures 20. The connecting rod 30 can balance the vibration between the at least two vibration damping structures 20 connected to it, so as to reduce the vibration amplitude of the vibration damping structure 20 connected to the connecting rod 30 relative to the outer cylinder 10, and further reduce the noise transmitted to the outside of the garment processing equipment 1.

[0041] Here, to ensure the connection stability between the connecting rod 30 and the vibration damping structure 20, an anti-rotation structure is designed. The anti-rotation structure connects the connecting rod 30 to the outer cylinder 10 and / or the vibration damping structure 20, and is suitable for restricting the connecting rod 30 from rotating relative to the outer cylinder 10, and / or restricting the connecting rod 30 from rotating along its own axis, so that the connecting rod 30 will not rotate relative to the outer cylinder 10 or rotate on its own axis after it is engaged with the vibration damping structure 20, thus ensuring the vibration damping and buffering capacity of the connecting rod 30 for the vibration damping structure 20, and the fixed stability of the connecting rod 30.

[0042] According to the clothing processing device 1 of the present invention, a connecting rod 30 is provided to connect at least two vibration damping structures 20. The connecting rod 30 can balance the vibration between the at least two vibration damping structures 20 connected to it, reduce the eccentricity of the outer cylinder 10, and thus reduce vibration noise. At the same time, an anti-rotation structure is also provided to connect the connecting rod 30 to the outer cylinder 10 and / or the vibration damping structure 20, so as to limit the rotation of the connecting rod 30 relative to the outer cylinder 10 and / or limit the rotation of the connecting rod 30 along its own axis, ensuring the vibration damping and buffering capacity of the connecting rod 30 on the vibration damping structure 20, and the fixed stability of the connecting rod 30, further reducing vibration noise and improving the user experience.

[0043] According to some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 1 As shown, multiple vibration damping structures 20 are spaced apart on the outer periphery of the outer cylinder 10. A connecting rod 30 is connected to the outer surface of the outer cylinder 10, and both ends of the connecting rod 30 are connected to two vibration damping structures 20 respectively. Specifically, the vibration damping structures 20 are disposed on the outer surface of the outer cylinder 10, and the connecting rod 30 can also be disposed on the outer surface of the outer cylinder 10. The connecting rod 30 is connected to two vibration damping structures 20 to balance the vibration of these two vibration damping structures 20. Here, both the connecting rod 30 and the vibration damping structures 20 can be constructed in multiples. Two vibration damping structures 20 and one connecting rod 30 constitute a set of vibration damping components. At least one set of vibration damping components can be disposed on the outer periphery of the outer cylinder 10 to reduce the vibration amplitude of the outer cylinder 10, thereby reducing the noise generated by the vibration.

[0044] In some embodiments, multiple vibration damping structures 20 may be arranged at intervals along the axial and / or circumferential direction of the outer cylinder 10, and the connecting rod 30 connects any two vibration damping structures 20.

[0045] According to some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 3 As shown, the anti-rotation structure includes an anti-rotation block 40, which is fixedly disposed on the outer circumferential surface of the connecting rod 30. The anti-rotation block 40 is adapted to be fixedly connected to the outer surface of the outer cylinder 10. Here, the anti-rotation block 40 is fixedly connected to both the connecting rod 30 and the outer cylinder 10 to fix the connecting rod 30 to the outer surface of the outer cylinder 10. The anti-rotation block 40 fixes the connecting rod 30 to the outer cylinder 10 to restrict the connecting rod 30 from rotating relative to the outer cylinder 10 or from rotating on its own.

[0046] In some embodiments, when there is a relative rotational tendency between the connecting rod 30 and the outer cylinder 10, the outer surface of the anti-rotation block 40 can be fixedly connected to the outer surface of the outer cylinder 10 to restrict the connecting rod 30 from rotating relative to the outer cylinder 10 or from rotating on its own. The outer surface of the anti-rotation block 40 can also abut against the outer surface of the outer cylinder 10 to restrict the connecting rod 30 from rotating relative to the outer cylinder 10.

[0047] According to some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figures 2-4 As shown, the garment handling device 1 also includes a retaining buckle 35, which is fixedly connected to the outer cylinder 10. The retaining buckle 35 has a groove 3531a suitable for receiving the anti-rotation block 40. The groove 3531a cooperates with the anti-rotation block 40 to limit the rotation of the connecting rod 30 relative to the outer cylinder 10. Figure 3 In the embodiment shown, the fixing buckle 35 connects the anti-rotation block 40 to the outer cylinder 10, and the anti-rotation block 40 is received and accommodated in the groove 3531a of the fixing buckle 35. Since the anti-rotation block 40 is fixedly mounted on the connecting rod 30, when the fixing buckle 35 is connected to the outer cylinder 10, the anti-rotation block 40 cannot rotate relative to the fixing buckle 35, that is, the connecting rod 30 cannot rotate relative to the fixing buckle 35. The fixing buckle 35 is set so that the connecting rod 30 is fixed to the outer cylinder 10, which restricts the rotation of the connecting rod 30 relative to the outer cylinder 10, and at the same time restricts the rotation of the connecting rod 30 relative to the outer cylinder 10.

[0048] According to some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 3 As shown, the shape of the groove 3531a is adapted to the shape of the anti-rotation block 40, and the cross-section of the anti-rotation block 40 is non-circular in the extension direction of the connecting rod 30, so as to restrict the connecting rod 30 from rotating along its own axis. Here, when the anti-rotation block 40 and the fixing buckle 35 have a tendency to rotate relative to each other, the outer surface of the anti-rotation block 40 can abut against the inner wall surface of the groove 3531a to restrict the anti-rotation block 40 from rotating relative to the fixing buckle 35, thereby restricting the connecting rod 30 from rotating along its own axis.

[0049] In some embodiments, non-circular shapes can refer to shapes such as triangles, quadrilaterals (e.g., circles). Figure 3 The shape of the anti-rotation block 40 can be a polygon such as a pentagon, or it can be an ellipse or other irregular shape, as shown. The shape of the anti-rotation block 40 is such that it can stop against the inner wall of the groove 3531a when the anti-rotation block 40 and the fixing buckle 35 have a relative rotation tendency, so as to limit the relative rotation between the anti-rotation block 40 and the fixing buckle 35 and ensure the connection stability between the connecting rod 30 and the outer cylinder 10.

[0050] Here, the cross-sectional shape of the connecting rod 30 in the axial direction is not limited and can be circular, elliptical, polygonal, or other shapes.

[0051] According to some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 4As shown, the fixing buckle 35 includes a first plate portion 351, a second plate portion 352, and a third plate portion 353. The first plate portion 351 and the second plate portion 352 are spaced apart in the extending direction, and one end of the first plate portion 351 is directly opposite to one end of the second plate portion 352. The first plate portion 351 and the second plate portion 352 are adapted to be fixedly connected to the outer cylinder 10. One end of the third plate portion 353 is connected to one end of the first plate portion 351, and the other end of the third plate portion 353 is connected to one end of the second plate portion 352. At least a portion of the third plate portion 353 protrudes towards one side in the thickness direction to form a protrusion 3531. The protrusion 3531 forms a groove 3531a on the other side of the third plate portion 353 in the thickness direction.

[0052] In some embodiments, the fastener 35 can be formed by stamping sheet metal parts, which facilitates the process design of the fastener 35. Here, the sheet metal parts are stamped and the above-mentioned protrusion 3531 is formed on one side of the thickness direction of the fastener 35, and the fastener 35 has a groove 3531a corresponding to the protrusion 3531 on the other side of the thickness direction.

[0053] In some embodiments, the first plate portion 351 and the second plate portion 352 are connected to the outer cylinder 10 by bolts.

[0054] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the garment processing device 1 further includes a buffer (not shown) disposed between the groove 3531a and the anti-rotation block 40, and adapted to attenuate the vibration between the fixing buckle 35 and the anti-rotation block 40. The vibrational energy between the fixing buckle 35 and the anti-rotation block 40 is transmitted to the buffer, causing the buffer to attenuate the force transmitted to the connecting rod 30, thereby ensuring the connection stability of the fixing buckle 35 and the anti-rotation block 40, reducing the probability of vibration caused by relative movement of the fixing buckle 35 and the anti-rotation block 40, and thus reducing the noise generated by the connection between the fixing buckle 35 and the anti-rotation block 40.

[0055] In some embodiments, the buffer can be sleeved on the outer periphery of the anti-rotation block 40. When the outer cylinder 10 vibrates, the anti-rotation block 40 may move relative to the fixed buckle 35, causing vibration between the fixed buckle 35 and the anti-rotation block 40. At this time, the buffer can buffer the vibration between the fixed buckle 35 and the anti-rotation block 40, thereby attenuating the vibration between the outer cylinder 10 and the connecting rod 30.

[0056] In the above embodiments, the buffer can be set at the position where the connecting rod 30 is subjected to greater force, or at the connection between the two structures, in order to reduce the stiffness of the fit between the two structures, and the force between the two structures can be transmitted to the buffer, and the compression of the buffer will also increase, so that the energy absorption and vibration reduction effect of the buffer is better.

[0057] In some embodiments, the performance of the buffer needs to meet the requirement that, at a position where the connecting rod 30 is subjected to a constant vibration frequency, the damping factor of the buffer is ≥0.8.

[0058] According to some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figures 5-6 As shown, the vibration damping structure 20 includes a support rod 21 and a connecting part 221. One end of the support rod 21 is hinged to the outer cylinder 10. The connecting part 221 is disposed on the support rod 21. The connecting part 221 is provided with a first mounting port 221a, and the connecting rod 30 is provided with a second mounting port 3121a. The fixing member 33 passes through the first mounting port 221a and the second mounting port 3121a to connect the connecting part 221 and the connecting rod 30, thereby restricting the rotation of the connecting rod 30 relative to the outer cylinder 10. In some embodiments, the garment processing device 1 further includes a housing with an installation cavity formed inside. An outer cylinder 10 is disposed in the installation cavity. One end of a support rod 21 is hinged to the outer cylinder 10, and the other end of the support rod 21 is hinged to the inner wall of the installation cavity. When the outer cylinder 10 vibrates, the support rod 21 rotates slightly about the end hinged to the inner wall of the installation cavity. The connecting rod 30 connects the two support rods 21 and connects them to the outer cylinder 10 through a fixing buckle 35. This can reduce the rotation amplitude of the two support rods 21, thereby reducing the vibration amplitude of the vibration damping structure 20 and reducing the noise transmitted to the outside of the garment processing device 1.

[0059] Here, a connecting part 221 is provided on the support rod 21 to connect with the connecting rod part 3121 on the connecting rod 30. The fixing member 33 can be used only to connect the connecting part 221 and the connecting rod part 3121. Alternatively, the connecting part 221 and the connecting rod part 3121 can be fixed by other structural members. Or, the connecting part 221 and the connecting rod part 3121 can be fixedly connected by the fixing member 33 without the participation of other structural members. Here, the fixing member 33 can pass through the first mounting port 221a and the second mounting port 3121a and be threaded into the first mounting port 221a and / or the second mounting port 3121a to realize the connection between the fixing member 33 and the connecting part 221 and the connecting rod part 3121. Alternatively, the fixing member 33 can pass through the first mounting port 221a and the second mounting port 3121a and be fastened to other structural members to realize the connection between the fixing member 33 and the connecting part 221 and the connecting rod part 3121.

[0060] In some embodiments, such as Figure 6 As shown, the vibration damping structure 20 also includes a sleeve 22, which is fitted around the outer periphery of the support rod 21. A connecting portion 221 is provided on the sleeve 22. The sleeve 22 is adapted to rub against the outer periphery of the support rod 21 to attenuate the vibration transmitted between the support rod 21 and the sleeve 22. An installation cavity is formed inside the outer casing of the garment processing equipment 1. One end of the support rod 21 is hinged to the outer cylinder 10, and the other end of the support rod 21 is hinged to the inner wall of the installation cavity. When the outer cylinder 10 vibrates, the support rod 21 rotates slightly about the end hinged to the inner wall of the installation cavity. The connecting rod 30 connects the two support rods 21 and the outer cylinder 10.

[0061] According to some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 3 As shown, the connecting rod 30 includes a first rod segment 311 and a second rod segment 312. The first rod segment 311 extends along a first direction and is connected to the outer cylinder 10. Two second rod segments 312 are constructed and located at opposite ends of the first rod segment 311, and are connected to the first rod segment 311. A second mounting opening 3121a is provided at the end of the second rod segment 312 furthest from the first rod segment 311 in a second direction, and a first mounting opening 221a is provided at the connecting part 221 in a second direction. The second direction intersects with the first direction. It can be understood that since the first rod segment 311 of the connecting rod 30 is fixedly connected to the outer cylinder 10, when the outer cylinder 10 vibrates, there is relative movement between the connecting rod 30 and the support rod 21. This allows the fixing member 33 to cooperate with the connecting rod part 3121 and the connecting part 221 in the second direction, preventing the connecting rod part 3121 from rotating relative to the connecting part 221 and improving the connection stability between the connecting rod part 3121 and the connecting part 221.

[0062] According to some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 6 As shown, the first mounting port 221a and the second mounting port 3121a have the same shape. The shape of the fastener 33 is adapted to the shape of the first mounting port 221a. The first mounting port 221a is constructed as a non-circular hole. When the connecting part 221 and the connecting rod part 3121 have a tendency to rotate relative to each other, the fastener 33 will stop against the hole walls of the first mounting port 221a and the second mounting port 3121a, restricting the relative rotation of the connecting part 221 and the connecting rod part 3121, ensuring the connection stability of the connecting part 221 and the connecting rod part 3121, reducing the probability of vibration caused by the relative movement of the connecting part 221 and the connecting rod part 3121, and thus reducing the noise generated by the connection of the connecting part 221 and the connecting rod part 3121. Furthermore, since the first mounting port 221a is a non-circular hole, after the fixing member 33 connects the connecting rod portion 3121 and the connecting portion 221, the connecting rod portion 3121 and the connecting portion 221 will not rotate relative to each other. Moreover, the fixing member 33 and the connecting rod portion 3121 cooperate in the second direction, which can also prevent the connecting rod portion 3121 from rotating relative to the connecting portion 221, thereby further improving the connection stability between the connecting rod portion 3121 and the connecting portion 221.

[0063] In some embodiments, a non-circular hole can refer to a triangular hole, a quadrilateral hole (e.g., ... Figure 3 The hole can be a polygonal hole such as a pentagonal hole, or an elliptical hole or other irregularly shaped hole. The shape of the fastener 33 is such that it can abut against the hole walls of the first mounting port 221a and the second mounting port 3121a when the connecting part 221 and the connecting rod part 3121 have a tendency to rotate relative to each other. This is to limit the relative rotation of the connecting part 221 and the connecting rod part 3121 and ensure the connection stability of the connecting part 221 and the connecting rod part 3121.

[0064] In summary, the garment processing device 1 according to the present invention is provided with a connecting rod 30 to connect at least two vibration damping structures 20, and an anti-rotation structure is also provided to connect the connecting rod 30 to the outer cylinder 10 and / or the vibration damping structure 20, so as to limit the rotation of the connecting rod 30 relative to the outer cylinder 10 and / or limit the rotation of the connecting rod 30 along its own axis, ensuring the vibration damping and buffering capacity of the connecting rod 30 on the vibration damping structure 20, and the fixed stability of the connecting rod 30, further reducing vibration noise and improving the user experience.
