[0040] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0041] The following is for reference. Figures 1-8 The base assembly 10 of the garment processing device according to an embodiment of the present invention is described.

[0042] like Figures 1-3 As shown, the base assembly 10 of the garment processing device according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a base 11, the base 11 having a first mounting area 111, the first mounting area 111 having a mounting cavity 114, the mounting cavity 114 being at least a part of an air duct, and the mounting cavity 114 being used to accommodate an evaporator 121 and / or a condenser 122.

[0043] The mounting cavity 114 includes at least two stacked first walls 1144, with a first cavity 1147 defined between two adjacent first walls 1144. Specifically, the number of stacked first walls 1144 can be two or more. If there are two first walls 1144, the first cavity 1147 is defined between the two first walls 1144. If there are two or more first walls 1144, the first cavity 1147 can be defined between any two adjacent first walls 1144.

[0044] Specifically, such as Figure 3 As shown, among the two stacked first walls 1144, the first wall 1144 closer to the mounting cavity 114 is the first inner wall 1145, and the first wall 1144 farther from the mounting cavity 114 is the first outer wall 1146. That is, the first inner wall 1145 is closer to the mounting cavity 114 than the first outer wall 1146, and the first inner wall 1145 and the first outer wall 1146 define a first cavity 1147.

[0045] When the garment processing equipment 100 is working, the gas flows in the air duct and can exchange heat with the evaporator 121 and condenser 122, thereby providing high-temperature gas to the garment processing drum to dry the clothes.

[0046] Since at least a portion of the cavity wall of the mounting cavity 114 includes multiple stacked first walls 1144, on the one hand, it is equivalent to increasing the thickness of at least a portion of the cavity wall of the mounting cavity 114, thereby increasing the sound insulation effect of the cavity wall of the mounting cavity 114 and preventing sound waves from propagating outward. On the other hand, when sound waves pass through the first inner wall 1145 and enter the first cavity 1147, the first outer wall 1146 will continue to reflect the sound waves, so that the sound wave energy passing through the first outer wall 1146 is further reduced, further preventing sound waves from propagating outward.

[0047] Therefore, the base assembly 10 of the garment processing equipment according to the present invention, by adopting the above-mentioned base 11, can achieve better sound insulation effect, prevent noise generated inside the air duct from spreading outward, thereby reducing the overall noise of the garment processing equipment 100 during operation and improving the user experience.

[0048] The mounting cavity 114 has two opposing sidewalls respectively provided with a partition 119, which is located between the evaporator 121 and the condenser 122 to separate the evaporator 121 and the condenser 122.

[0049] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, according to some embodiments of the present invention, a first reinforcing rib 1148 is provided in the first cavity 1147, and the first reinforcing rib 1148 connects two adjacent first walls 1144. By providing the first reinforcing rib 1148 and connecting the two adjacent first walls 1144, the structural strength and resistance to deformation of the cavity wall of the mounting cavity 114 can be improved while ensuring the sound insulation effect, thereby improving the reliability of the base 11.

[0050] In some embodiments, the number of first reinforcing ribs 1148 within the first cavity 1147 is multiple, and the multiple first reinforcing ribs 1148 are spaced apart in the extending direction of the first wall 1144 to divide the first cavity 1147 into multiple first chambers. For example, the multiple first reinforcing ribs 1148 may be spaced apart in the length direction of the first wall 1144 or spaced apart in the width direction of the first wall 1144.

[0051] In the above technical solution, by setting multiple first reinforcing ribs 1148, multiple first cavities 1147 between two adjacent first walls 1144 are formed. While ensuring the sound insulation effect, the structural strength and resistance to deformation of the cavity wall of the mounting cavity 114 can be further improved, and the reliability of the base 11 can be improved. Compared with the mounting cavity 114 of the same size and the solid cavity wall of the same thickness, the weight of the base 11 can be reduced, and a lightweight design can be achieved.

[0052] In some embodiments, each first reinforcing rib 1148 can extend in the vertical direction to facilitate demolding, so that the first reinforcing rib 1148 and the base 11 can be integrally formed, which helps to improve the production efficiency of the base assembly 10.

[0053] The first cavity 1147 can be filled with sound-absorbing components, such as sound-absorbing cotton, so as to achieve a sound absorption effect, further hinder the transmission of noise generated inside the air duct to the outside, and thus reduce the overall noise of the clothing processing equipment 100 when it is working.

[0054] In some embodiments, the first reinforcing rib 1148 is provided with a plurality of spaced-apart first sound-absorbing through holes (not shown in the figure). By providing first sound-absorbing through holes on the first reinforcing rib 1148, when sound waves pass through the first sound-absorbing through holes, they can rub against the hole walls of the first sound-absorbing through holes, thereby attenuating the energy of the sound waves. This can further hinder the outward propagation of noise generated inside the air duct, thereby reducing the overall noise of the clothing processing equipment 100 during operation.

[0055] According to some embodiments of the present invention, in two adjacent stacked first wall bodies 1144, the inner first wall body 1144 is provided with a plurality of spaced second sound-absorbing through holes (not shown in the figure), and the second sound-absorbing through holes connect the first cavity 1147 and the mounting cavity 114.

[0056] Specifically, among the two stacked first walls 1144, the first wall 1144 closer to the mounting cavity 114 is the first inner wall 1145, and the first wall 1144 farther from the mounting cavity 114 is the first outer wall 1146. The first inner wall 1145 is located on the side of the first outer wall 1146 closer to the mounting cavity 114, and the first inner wall 1145 is provided with a plurality of second sound-absorbing through holes.

[0057] Noise waves generated inside the air duct can enter the first cavity 1147 through multiple second sound-absorbing holes. During this process, the noise waves can rub against the walls of the second sound-absorbing holes and the walls of the first cavity 1147, converting sound energy into heat energy and attenuating the energy of the noise waves. This further hinders the propagation of noise generated inside the air duct, thereby reducing the overall noise of the clothing processing equipment 100 during operation and improving the user experience.

[0058] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, according to some embodiments of the present invention, the cavity wall of the mounting cavity 114 includes a first side wall 1140 and a second side wall 1141. The first side wall 1140 and the second side wall 1141 are adjacent and arranged at an angle. One side of the first side wall 1140 is connected to the second side wall 1141, and the other side of the first side wall 1140 extends toward the air outlet 115 near the air duct.

[0059] Each of the first sidewall 1140 and the second sidewall 1141 defines a first cavity 1147. That is, each of the first sidewall 1140 and the second sidewall 1141 includes a plurality of stacked first wall bodies 1144, such that each of the first sidewall 1140 and the second sidewall 1141 defines a first cavity 1147.

[0060] In the above technical solution, the first sidewall 1140 and the second sidewall 1141 serve as the cavity walls of the mounting cavity 114. Both can increase the sound insulation effect of the cavity walls of the mounting cavity 114 and prevent sound waves from propagating outward. This can reduce the overall noise of the clothing processing equipment 100 during operation and improve the user experience.

[0061] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the base 11 further has a second mounting area 112 for mounting the compressor 123. The cavity wall of the mounting cavity 114 also includes a third side wall 1142, which is disposed opposite to the second side wall 1141 and is located between the first mounting area 111 and the second mounting area 112. The third side wall 1142 can separate the compressor 123, the evaporator 121, and the condenser 122. By partitioning the base 11, the compressor 123, the evaporator 121, and the condenser 122 can be rationally arranged, making the structure of the clothing handling device 100 more compact.

[0062] In some examples not shown in the figures, the third sidewall 1142 defines a first cavity 1147. That is, the third sidewall 1142 may include a plurality of stacked first walls 1144, such that a first cavity 1147 is defined between two adjacent first walls 1144.

[0063] In the above technical solution, the third side wall 1142 serves as the cavity wall of the mounting cavity 114, which can increase the sound insulation effect of the cavity wall of the mounting cavity 114 and prevent sound waves from propagating outward, thereby reducing the overall noise of the clothing processing equipment 100 during operation and improving the user experience.

[0064] Of course, the third sidewall 1142 can also be a single-layer structure, and the specific choice can be made according to the needs.

[0065] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, in some examples, the base 11 also defines a filter chamber 117 for mounting a filter element (not shown in the figure). The cavity wall of the mounting cavity 114 also includes a fourth side wall 1143, which is disposed opposite to the first side wall 1140. The fourth side wall 1143 is provided with an air inlet 116, which connects to the ventilation duct and the filter chamber 117.

[0066] When the garment processing equipment 100 is working, the air in the garment processing drum can enter the filter chamber 117, and after being filtered by the filter element, it enters the air duct from the air inlet 116. After exchanging heat with the evaporator 121 and condenser 122 in the air duct, it is discharged from the air duct from the air outlet 115 under the drive of the impeller 131, and then enters the garment processing drum again to exchange heat with the clothes in the garment processing drum. This cycle is repeated to achieve the drying treatment of the clothes.

[0067] In some examples not shown in the figures, the fourth sidewall 1143 defines a first cavity 1147. That is, the fourth sidewall 1143 may include a plurality of stacked first walls 1144, such that a first cavity 1147 is defined between two adjacent first walls 1144.

[0068] In the above technical solution, the fourth side wall 1143 serves as the cavity wall of the mounting cavity 114, which can increase the sound insulation effect of the cavity wall of the mounting cavity 114 and prevent sound waves from propagating outward, thereby reducing the overall noise of the clothing processing equipment 100 during operation and improving the user experience.

[0069] Of course, the fourth sidewall 1143 can also be a single-layer structure, and the specific choice can be made according to the needs.

[0070] In some embodiments not shown in the figures, the bottom wall of the mounting cavity 114 may also define a first cavity 1147, thereby further increasing the sound insulation effect of the cavity wall of the mounting cavity 114, preventing sound waves from propagating outward, and thus reducing the overall noise of the clothing processing equipment 100 during operation, which is beneficial to improving the user experience. Of course, the bottom wall of the mounting cavity 114 may also be a single-layer structure, which can be selected according to the specific needs.

[0071] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in some specific examples, the second mounting area 112 is also equipped with a motor 132 for the fan 13, which is located between the air outlet 115 and the compressor 123. By placing the motor 132 of the fan 13 and the compressor 123 in the second mounting area 112, a reasonable layout of the various important components on the base 11 is achieved, making the structure of the base assembly 10 more compact.

[0072] like Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, in some examples, the wall of the air outlet 115 forming the air duct includes at least two stacked second walls 1151, with a second cavity 1154 defined between two adjacent second walls 1151. The wall forming the air outlet 115 is adapted to be arranged opposite to the impeller 131 of the fan 13, and the opening of the second cavity 1154 is arranged facing the impeller 131.

[0073] Specifically, the number of stacked second wall bodies 1151 can be two or more. If there are two second wall bodies 1151, a second cavity 1154 is defined between the two second wall bodies 1151. If there are two or more second wall bodies 1151, a second cavity 1154 can be defined between any two adjacent second wall bodies 1151.

[0074] In the two stacked second walls 1151, the second wall 1151 closer to the air outlet 115 is the second inner wall 1152, and the second wall 1151 farther away from the air outlet 115 is the second outer wall 1153. That is, the second inner wall 1152 is closer to the air outlet 115 than the second outer wall 1153. The second inner wall 1152 and the second outer wall 1153 define a second cavity 1154.

[0075] When the garment processing equipment 100 is working, the gas flows in the air duct and can exchange heat with the evaporator 121 and condenser 122. Then, driven by the impeller 131, it is discharged from the air outlet 115 and enters the garment processing drum, thereby providing high-temperature gas into the garment processing drum to dry the clothes.

[0076] Since the wall forming the air outlet 115 includes multiple stacked second walls 1151, and the opening of the second cavity 1154 faces the impeller 131, the noise waves generated when the impeller 131 rotates and the noise waves generated by the air duct can both enter the second cavity 1154. The cavity wall of the second cavity 1154 can reflect the noise waves, thereby attenuating the energy of the noise waves and preventing the noise waves from propagating outward. This helps to reduce the overall noise of the clothing processing equipment 100 during operation and improves the user experience.

[0077] like Figure 4 As shown, in some specific examples, the second cavity 1154 extends circumferentially along the air outlet 115. The second cavity 1154 is provided with a plurality of second reinforcing ribs 1155, which are arranged at intervals circumferentially around the air outlet 115. Each second reinforcing rib 1155 connects to two adjacent second walls 1151. In other words, the plurality of second reinforcing ribs 1155 can divide the second cavity 1154 into a plurality of second chambers arranged circumferentially around the air outlet 115.

[0078] In the above technical solution, by setting the second cavity 1154 to extend circumferentially along the air outlet 115, the sound insulation and sound absorption effects can be improved; by setting multiple second reinforcing ribs 1155, the second cavity 1154 between two adjacent second walls 1151 forms multiple second chambers, which, while ensuring the sound insulation and sound absorption effects, can further improve the structural strength and resistance to deformation of the wall forming the air outlet 115, and improve the reliability of the base 11.

[0079] The second cavity 1154 can be filled with sound-absorbing components, such as sound-absorbing cotton, to achieve a sound absorption effect, further hindering the outward transmission of noise generated by the impeller 131, thereby reducing the overall noise of the clothing processing equipment 100 during operation.

[0080] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, according to a further embodiment of the present invention, the base assembly 10 further includes an air duct cover (not shown in the figure), which covers the top opening of the mounting cavity 114 so that the air duct cover and the base 11 define an air duct. By providing the air duct cover, the top opening of the mounting cavity 114 can be closed, thereby defining a relatively closed air duct, so that the mounting cavity 114 forms at least a portion of the air duct.

[0081] Specifically, the top of the base 11 is provided with a fixing hole 118, and the duct cover can be fixed to the base 11 by fasteners, which cooperate with the fixing hole 118. There can be multiple fixing holes 118, which are distributed around the mounting cavity 114. For example, multiple fixing holes 118 can be distributed on the outer periphery of the mounting cavity 114, or some fixing holes 118 can be distributed on the outside of the mounting cavity 114 and other fixing holes 118 can be distributed inside the mounting cavity 114 (for example, on the top of the aforementioned partition 119).

[0082] To illustrate the technical effects of the base assembly 10 of the garment processing device according to the present invention, the base in the comparative example and the base 11 of the present application embodiment will be compared and described below.

[0083] Figure 5 The diagram shows a simulated sound insulation curve of the base in the comparative example and the base 11 in the embodiment of the present invention. The solid curve represents the simulated sound insulation curve of the base in the comparative example, and the dashed curve represents the simulated sound insulation curve of the base 11 in the embodiment of the present invention. Figure 5 It can be seen that the low-frequency (0-400Hz) sound insulation of the base 11 in this embodiment is higher than that of the base in the comparative example, and the mid-high frequency (above 500Hz) sound insulation of the base 11 in this embodiment is higher than that of the base in the comparative example.

[0084] Figure 6 The diagram shows the noise spectrum of the base 11 in the comparative example and the base 11 in the embodiment of the present invention. Curve S1 represents the noise spectrum of the base in the comparative example, and curve S2 represents the noise spectrum of the base 11 in the embodiment of the present invention. Figure 6 It can be seen that the mid-to-high frequency noise of the base 11 in this embodiment is significantly reduced compared to the base in the comparative example.

[0085] Figure 7 A noise histogram of the base in the comparative example and the base 11 of the embodiment of the present invention is shown under a silent mode. From Figure 7 As can be seen, under the silent mode, the noise of the base 11 in this embodiment is reduced by 1 dB compared to the base in the comparative example.

[0086] Therefore, the base assembly 10 of the garment processing equipment according to the embodiment of the present invention can improve the sound insulation effect of the base 11 by improving the structure of the base 11, thereby reducing the outward propagation of wind noise generated in the air duct and thus reducing working noise.

[0087] The following is combined Figure 8 A garment processing apparatus 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention is described.

[0088] like Figure 8 As shown, the garment processing device 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes the base assembly 10 of the garment processing device described above. The garment processing device 100 can be a dryer or a washer-dryer combo.

[0089] Since the base assembly 10 of the clothing processing device in this embodiment of the invention has the above-mentioned technical effects, the clothing processing device 100 in this embodiment of the invention also has the above-mentioned technical effects. That is, by adopting the base assembly 10, the overall noise of the clothing processing device 100 during operation can be reduced, the sound quality can be improved, and thus the user experience can be enhanced.

[0090] In some embodiments, the garment handling device 100 further includes a housing 20, a door 30, and a garment handling cylinder (not shown in the figure). The base assembly 10 and the garment handling cylinder are both disposed inside the housing 20, and the garment handling cylinder is located above the base assembly 10. The air duct and the garment handling cylinder are connected. The front of the housing 20 is provided with a garment pick-up and drop-off port that is opposite to the opening of the garment handling cylinder. The door 30 is rotatably disposed on the housing 20 and is used to open and close the garment pick-up and drop-off port. When the door 30 closes the garment pick-up and drop-off port, it can also close the opening of the garment handling cylinder.

[0091] The garment processing device 100 may include one garment processing drum or two garment processing drums. In an embodiment where the garment processing device 100 includes two garment processing drums, the two garment processing drums are arranged vertically, and the base assembly 10 may be located between the two garment processing drums.
