Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of clothing processing apparatus technology, and more specifically, to a frame assembly and a clothing processing apparatus. Background Technology

[0002] In related technologies, the mounting base is supported and fixed by a support structure formed by folding the crossbeam structure of the support frame. Due to the inaccurate dimensions of the hanging platform formed by the bending of the crossbeam, the contact area between the mounting base and the support structure is small during installation. In some cases, the contact relationship between the mounting base and the support structure is line contact, resulting in large local pressure on the support structure. Furthermore, since the two ends of the crossbeam are connected to the vertical beam, the supporting force on the crossbeam is located at both ends of the crossbeam. The mounting base is supported on the crossbeam, and the middle of the crossbeam is subjected to downward gravity, while the two sides are subjected to upward supporting force. The crossbeam is prone to shear deformation, and the crossbeam structure is prone to deformation. This affects the stability of the frame structure and provides poor support for the mounting base, indicating room for improvement. Summary of the Invention

[0051] 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.

[0052] In this invention, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, "above" or "below" the second feature can include direct contact between the first and second features, or contact between the first and second features through another feature between them. Furthermore, "above," "over," and "on top" of the second feature includes the first feature directly above or diagonally above the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is at a higher horizontal level than the second feature. "Below," "below," and "under" the second feature includes the first feature directly below or diagonally below the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is at a lower horizontal level than the second feature.

[0053] The following is for reference. Figures 1-16 A frame assembly 100 of a garment handling apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention is described.

[0054] The frame assembly 100 of the garment handling device according to an embodiment of the present invention may include: a support frame 1, a mounting base 2, and a plurality of brackets 3.

[0055] The support frame 1 defines a receiving space capable of accommodating two garment processing modules, including a washing module and / or a drying module. The garment processing device is installed as a whole through the support frame 1, and the high-strength support frame 1 ensures the stability of the overall structure of the garment processing device. The mounting base 2 is located in the receiving space and connected to the support frame 1, dividing the receiving space into upper and lower parts. Different washing modules can be installed in the upper and lower parts to achieve functional integration of the garment processing device.

[0056] In related technologies, the mounting base is located within the accommodating space and is supported and fixed by a support structure formed by folding the crossbeam structure of the support frame. Due to the inaccurate dimensions of the hanging platform formed by the bending of the crossbeam, the contact area between the mounting base and the support structure is small during installation. In some cases, the contact relationship between the mounting base and the support structure is line contact, resulting in large local pressure on the support structure. Furthermore, since the two ends of the crossbeam are connected to the vertical beam, the supporting force on the crossbeam is located at both ends of the crossbeam. The mounting base is supported on the crossbeam, and the middle of the crossbeam is subjected to downward gravity, while the two sides are subjected to upward supporting force. The crossbeam is prone to shear deformation, and the crossbeam structure is prone to deformation, which affects the stability of the frame structure and provides poor support for the mounting base.

[0057] Therefore, this invention provides a garment processing device with multiple simple supports 3 connected to the vertical beam 13 to support the mounting base 2. This ensures the stability of the internal structure of the garment processing device without affecting its production cost.

[0058] Specifically, the mounting base 2 is supported above multiple brackets 3, and the multiple brackets 3 are connected to at least a portion of the vertical beams 13 of the support frame 1. Thus, the gravity of the mounting base 2 acts on the brackets 3, and the brackets 3 can directly transmit the force to the vertical beams 13. The vertical beams 13 extend vertically, and the gravity is transmitted along the extension direction of the vertical beams 13. The force transmission effect on the support frame 1 is better, avoiding the impact of the mounting base 2 on the stability of the support frame 1 structure, and also ensuring the stability of the mounting base 2 support setting, thereby ensuring the overall stability of the frame assembly 100.

[0059] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the frame assembly 100 of the garment processing device has a mounting base 2 supported on a plurality of brackets 3 connected to the vertical beam 13. The mounting base 2 has better stability, the structure of the frame assembly 100 is more stable, and the overall structure of the garment processing device is more reliable.

[0060] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 8 , Figure 9 , Figures 13-16 The bracket 3 includes a first support plate 31 and a second support plate 32. One of the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32 is connected to the vertical beam 13, and the other is used to support the mounting base 2. The first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32 are set at an angle and connected. In some embodiments, the angle between the support surface of the mounting base 2 that contacts the bracket 3 and the connection surface of the vertical beam 13 and the bracket 3 is the angle between the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32. Preferably, the angle between the support surface of the mounting base 2 that contacts the bracket 3 and the connection surface of the vertical beam 13 and the bracket 3 is 90 degrees, and the angle between the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32 is 90 degrees. Thus, the support plate used to support the mounting base 2 is subjected to uniform force, avoiding deformation of the bracket 3 under force.

[0061] Reference Figures 13-16One end of the first support plate 31 along its length is connected to one end of the second support plate 32 along its length. To ensure the strength of the connection between the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32 and to prevent deformation and breakage at the connection, a reinforcing part 33 is provided at the connection between the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32. The reinforcing part 33 can enhance the rigidity of the connection between the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32 and prevent bending and deformation at the connection. The reinforcing part 33 extends from the first support plate 31 to the second support plate 32 so that the position of the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32 near the connection can also be strengthened, further improving the support stability of the bracket 3.

[0062] The reinforcing part 33 includes a reinforcing recess and / or a reinforcing protrusion, so as to increase the structural strength of the reinforcing part 33 without affecting the production cost of the bracket 3.

[0063] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the number of reinforcing parts 33 is one. In other embodiments, the number of reinforcing parts 33 is multiple, and the multiple reinforcing parts 33 are arranged in the extending direction of the connection, so as to use the multiple reinforcing parts 33 to jointly improve the strength of the connection between the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32, and make the structure and strength of the connection between the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32 uniform, avoiding local stress.

[0064] Reference Figures 8-12 The bracket 3 is connected to the vertical beam 13. Specifically, one of the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32 is connected to the vertical beam 13. The vertical beam 13 is provided with a connecting part 133. The first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32 that are used to connect to the vertical beam 13 are provided with a first mating part 34. The connecting part 133 and the first mating part 34 are connected in a mating manner. Through the mating connection of the connecting part 133 and the first mating part 34, the bracket 3 can be stably fixed on the vertical beam 13, ensuring the stability of the bracket 3 setting and the stability of the bracket 3 supporting and fixing the mounting base 2.

[0065] In some embodiments, the first support plate 31 of the bracket 3 has a first mating part 34, and the second support plate 32 of the bracket 3 does not have a mating connection structure, so as to reduce the production mold opening cost of the bracket 3. In other embodiments, the second support plate 32 of the bracket 3 has a first mating part 34, and the first support plate 31 of the bracket 3 does not have a mating connection structure, so as to reduce the production mold opening cost of the bracket 3.

[0066] The connecting part 133 includes a connecting hole 1331, and the first mating part 34 includes a first mating hole 36. The vertical beam 13 and the bracket 3 are connected by fasteners. The fasteners pass through the connecting hole 1331 and the first mating hole 36. The fasteners can stably connect the bracket 3 and the vertical beam 13 together, and the bracket 3 will not detach from the vertical beam 13 when affected by external forces.

[0067] The connecting part 133 includes a positioning protrusion 1332, and the first mating part 34 includes a positioning hole 37. The positioning protrusion 1332 and the positioning hole 37 are inserted into each other. Therefore, during the process of fixing the bracket 3 to the vertical beam 13, the positioning protrusion 1332 and the positioning hole 37 can be inserted into each other first, which can ensure the accuracy of the bracket 3's setting position and ensure that the bracket 3 can support the mounting base 2.

[0068] In some embodiments, during the connection between the bracket 3 and the vertical beam 13, the positioning protrusion 1332 and the positioning hole 37 need to be inserted and engaged, and the fastener needs to be inserted through the connection hole 1331 and connected to the first mating hole 36. During the installation process, the positioning protrusion 1332 and the positioning hole 37 are first inserted and engaged to ensure the accuracy of the bracket 3's position and to ensure that the bracket 3 can support the mounting base 2. Then, the fastener is tightened and fixed to connect the vertical beam 13 and the bracket 3 by machine. At this time, the engagement of the positioning protrusion 1332 and the positioning hole 37 can also prevent the bracket 3 from rotating.

[0069] In some other embodiments, both the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32 are provided with mating parts that can cooperate with the connecting part 133. In this case, either the first support plate 31 or the second support plate 32 can be connected to the vertical beam 13, making the installation process of the bracket 3 more convenient.

[0070] Specifically, one of the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32 is provided with a first mating part 34, and the other of the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32 is provided with a second mating part 35. The second mating part 35 has the same structure as the first mating part 34. In other words, both the second mating part 35 and the first mating part 34 can mate with the connecting part 133 so that the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32 can be selectively connected to the vertical beam 13.

[0071] In other words, during the installation of the bracket 3 and the vertical beam 13, either the first support plate 31 or the second support plate 32 can be connected to the vertical beam 13 without considering the installation direction, making the bracket 3 more versatile.

[0072] In some embodiments, there are cases where the distance between the connection point of some vertical beams 13 to the bracket 3 and the bottom support surface of the corresponding mounting base 2 is different from the distance between the connection point of the other vertical beams 13 to the bracket 3 and the bottom support surface of the corresponding mounting base 2. In this case, the lengths of the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32 can be designed to be different so that the same bracket 3 can be used to support and install the mounting base 2.

[0073] For example, the length of the first support plate 31 can be designed to be longer, and the distance between the connection structure on the first support plate 31 and the vertical beam 13 and the second support plate 32 can also be longer. Conversely, the length of the second support plate 32 can be designed to be shorter, and the distance between the connection structure on the second support plate 32 and the vertical beam 13 and the first support plate 31 can be shorter. For different vertical beams 13, for example, when the distance between the connection point on the vertical beam 13 and the bracket 3 and the bottom support surface of the corresponding mounting base 2 is longer, the first support plate 31 is selected to connect to the vertical beam 13; when the distance between the connection point on the vertical beam 13 and the bracket 3 and the bottom support surface of the corresponding mounting base 2 is shorter, the second support plate 32 is selected to connect to the vertical beam 13.

[0074] In some embodiments, a first mating part 34 is provided on the first support plate 31, and a second mating part 35 is provided on the second support plate 32.

[0075] Furthermore, for vertical beams 13 in different directions, the connection directions between the support 3 and the vertical beam 13 are different. The structure on the support 3 may interfere with the structure of the vertical beam 13 during the connection process. In order to avoid interference between the structure of the support 3 and the vertical beam 13, the opening position of the first mating part 34 needs to be adapted.

[0076] For example, the vertical beam 13 includes a first plate portion 131 extending in the left-right direction in the width direction and a second plate portion 132 extending in the front-back direction in the width direction. A first mating portion 34 is provided on the first support plate 31 of the bracket 3. One of the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32 is connected to the first plate portion 131 and / or the second plate portion 132.

[0077] When the bracket 3 is connected to the vertical beam 13 located on the right rear side of the support frame 1, the right edge of the first plate portion 131 of the vertical beam 13 located on the right rear side is connected to the rear edge of the second plate portion 132. The connecting portion 133 may be provided on the first plate portion 131 or the second plate portion 132 of the vertical beam 13 located on the right rear side.

[0078] In some embodiments, the first plate portion 131 of the vertical beam 13 is provided with the connecting portion 133 on the right rear side, the first support plate 31 of the bracket 3 is connected to the first plate portion 131, the first side of the first support plate 31 in the width direction is close to the second plate portion 132, the second side of the first support plate 31 in the width direction is far away from the second plate portion 132, and the distance between the connecting portion 133 and the second plate portion 132 is a first distance. At this time, the distance between the first mating portion 34 and the first side of the first support plate 31 in the width direction is not greater than the first distance.

[0079] In some embodiments, the connecting part 133 may be provided on the second plate part 132 of the right rear vertical beam 13. The first support plate 31 of the bracket 3 is connected to the second plate part 132. The first side of the first support plate 31 in the width direction is away from the first plate part 131, and the second side of the first support plate 31 in the width direction is close to the first plate part 131. The distance between the connecting part 133 and the first plate part 131 is the second distance. At this time, the distance between the first mating part 34 and the second side of the first support plate 31 in the width direction is not greater than the second distance.

[0080] When the bracket 3 is connected to the vertical beam 13 located on the left front side in the support frame 1, the left edge of the first plate portion 131 of the vertical beam 13 located on the left front side is connected to the front edge of the second plate portion 132. The connecting portion 133 may be provided on the first plate portion 131 or the second plate portion 132 of the vertical beam 13 located on the left front side.

[0081] In some embodiments, the first plate portion 131 of the vertical beam 13 is provided with the connecting portion 133 on the left front side, the first support plate 31 of the bracket 3 is connected to the first plate portion 131, the first side of the first support plate 31 in the width direction is away from the second plate portion 132, the second side of the first support plate 31 in the width direction is close to the second plate portion 132, and the distance between the connecting portion 133 and the second plate portion 132 is the third distance. At this time, the distance between the first mating portion 34 and the second side of the first support plate 31 in the width direction is not greater than the third distance.

[0082] In some embodiments, the connecting part 133 may be provided on the second plate part 132 of the left front vertical beam 13, the first support plate 31 of the bracket 3 is connected to the second plate part 132, the second side of the first support plate 31 in the width direction is away from the first plate part 131, the first side of the first support plate 31 in the width direction is close to the first plate part 131, and the distance between the connecting part 133 and the first plate part 131 is the fourth distance. At this time, the distance between the first mating part 34 and the first side of the first support plate 31 in the width direction is not greater than the fourth distance.

[0083] To ensure the strength of the bracket 3, the width of the bracket 3 is set relatively wide. When the first support plate 31 of the bracket 3 is provided with only one set of first mating parts 34, it is impossible to simultaneously meet the distance requirements of the first mating parts 34 from both sides of the first support plate 31 in the width direction when they are provided on different vertical beams 13. For example, when the width of the first support plate 31 of the bracket 3 is greater than the sum of the second distance and the fourth distance, the first support plate 31 is provided with only one set of first mating parts 34. The position of the first mating parts 34 cannot simultaneously meet the requirements of "the distance between the first mating parts 34 and the second side in the width direction of the first support plate 31 is not greater than the second distance" and "the distance between the first mating parts 34 and the first side in the width direction of the first support plate 31 is not greater than the fourth distance". Therefore, the bracket 3 does not have the versatility of the second plate part 132 installed on the vertical beam 13 located on the right rear side and the second plate part 132 installed on the vertical beam 13 located on the left front side.

[0084] Therefore, in some embodiments, the first support plate 31 is provided with two sets of first mating parts 34 symmetrically arranged in its width direction. The two sets of first mating parts 34 can respectively satisfy the requirements of "the distance between the first mating part 34 and the second side in the width direction of the first support plate 31 is not greater than the second distance" and "the distance between the first mating part 34 and the first side in the width direction of the first support plate 31 is not greater than the fourth distance". When the first support plate 31 is connected to the second plate part 132 of the vertical beam 13 located on the right rear side, one set of the two sets of first mating parts 34 is mated with the connecting part 133. When the first support plate 31 is connected to the second plate part 132 of the vertical beam 13 located on the left front side, the other set of the two sets of first mating parts 34 is mated with the connecting part 133.

[0085] Similarly, the first support plate 31 is provided with two sets of first mating parts 34 arranged in a stacked manner in its width direction.

[0086] In some embodiments, the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32 have the same structure. Therefore, the second support plate 32 may also be provided with two sets of second mating parts 35 symmetrically arranged in its width direction, or the second support plate 32 may be provided with two sets of second mating parts 35 stacked in its width direction.

[0087] like Figures 1-12 As shown, the vertical beam 13 includes a first plate portion 131 and a second plate portion 132. The length of the first plate portion 131 extends vertically and the width extends horizontally. The length of the second plate portion 132 extends vertically and the width extends longitudinally. One side of the width of the second plate portion 132 is connected to one side of the width of the first plate portion 131.

[0088] In some embodiments, the lateral direction refers to the left-right direction of the garment handling device, and the longitudinal direction refers to the front-back direction of the garment handling device. The right edge of the first plate portion 131 of the vertical beam 13 located on the right rear side is connected to the rear edge of the second plate portion 132. The left edge of the first plate portion 131 of the vertical beam 13 located on the left rear side is connected to the rear edge of the second plate portion 132. The right edge of the first plate portion 131 of the vertical beam 13 located on the right front side is connected to the front edge of the second plate portion 132. The left edge of the first plate portion 131 of the vertical beam 13 located on the left front side is connected to the front edge of the second plate portion 132.

[0089] Furthermore, the support frame 1 also includes side beams, which include a first side beam 14 located at the front of the receiving space, a second side beam 15 located at the rear of the receiving space, and third side beams 12 located on the left and right sides of the receiving space. Both the first side beam 14 and the second side beam 15 are connected to the first plate portion 131 of the vertical beam 13. Since the connection between the support 3 and the first plate portion 131 may cause interference at the connection points with the first side beam 14 and the second side beam 15, the support 3 is connected to the second plate portion 132. One of the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32 is connected to the second plate portion 132.

[0090] A portion of the second plate portion 132 is recessed into the receiving space to form a mounting recess 1321 for mounting wiring components on the outer surface of the second plate portion 132, and a protrusion 1322 is formed on the inner surface of the second plate portion 132. In order to ensure the contact area at the connection between the bracket 3 and the vertical beam 13 and the strength of the connection between the bracket 3 and the vertical beam 13, one of the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32 is connected to the protrusion 1322. Thus, not only can the contact area at the connection between the first support plate 31 or the second support plate 32 and the vertical beam 13 be ensured, but the protrusion 1322 can also improve the strength of the connection between the vertical beam 13 and the bracket 3, ensuring the stability of the connection between the bracket 3 and the vertical beam 13.

[0091] Combination Figures 1-11 In the illustrated embodiment, multiple supports 3 collectively support the mounting base 2, allowing each support 3 to distribute the weight of the mounting base 2 and preventing deformation of the support 3 due to partial stress. There are multiple vertical beams 13, meaning the support frame 1 includes multiple vertical beams 13. In some embodiments, multiple supports 3 are connected one-to-one with multiple vertical beams 13. This allows the multiple vertical beams 13 to distribute the weight of the mounting base 2, preventing uneven stress on different parts of the support frame 1 caused by localized stress, which could lead to deformation of the support frame 1 or a shift in the center of gravity of the clothing processing device. One support 3 is mounted on each vertical beam 13, allowing the force on the support 3 to be directly transmitted to the vertical beam 13. Since the vertical beam 13 extends vertically, the weight is transmitted along the extension direction of the vertical beam 13, resulting in better force transmission on the support frame 1.

[0092] In other embodiments, multiple brackets 3 are connected to a portion of multiple vertical beams 13, and the mounting base 2 is simultaneously supported on other support structures.

[0093] Reference Figures 1-11 The support frame 1 includes a square base 11 and four vertical beams 13. The lower ends of the four vertical beams 13 are respectively connected to the four corners of the square base 11 to form the basic part of the support frame 1 and define the accommodation space.

[0094] The support frame 1 also includes a side crossbeam, with both ends of the side crossbeam connected to the middle of two adjacent vertical beams 13 along its length. Since the overall structure of the clothing processing device is relatively high and the vertical beams 13 are relatively long, the side crossbeam can be supported between the two vertical beams 13 to prevent the vertical beams 13 from being deformed by force and to ensure the overall stability of the support frame 1.

[0095] The side crossbeams include a first side crossbeam 14 located in front of the mounting base, a second side crossbeam 15 located behind the mounting base, or a third side crossbeam 12 located on the left and right sides of the mounting base.

[0096] In some embodiments, the mounting base 2 is supported on a side crossbeam and at least two brackets 3. The brackets 3 are connected to the middle of the other two vertical beams 13 besides the one connected to the side crossbeam supporting the mounting base 2. That is, among the four vertical beams 13 of the support frame, one side crossbeam is connected to the middle of two of the vertical beams 13, and at least two brackets 3 are connected to the middle of the remaining two vertical beams 13. The mounting base 2 is supported on a side crossbeam and at least two brackets 3.

[0097] With the joint support of the bracket and the side crossbeam, the mounting base 2 is more stably installed, the support area of ​​the mounting base 2 is increased, and the support points are located in three directions of the mounting base 2, with three-point support, which provides better support stability.

[0098] Optionally, the side beam can be a first side beam 14, or a second side beam 15, or a third side beam 12, which is not limited here.

[0099] In some embodiments, the side beam may be a first side beam 14, which is supported in the middle of the two vertical beams 13 connected by the second side beam, so as to facilitate the arrangement of the internal structure of the garment handling device.

[0100] In some embodiments, two vertical beams connected to the side crossbeam are connected to at least two supports, and the supports are connected to the vertical beams at a position below the side crossbeams.

[0101] Specifically, part of the structure of the side beam is located on the side of the mounting base 2 and part of the structure protrudes from the bottom of the mounting base 2 and is connected to the vertical beam 13. The two vertical beams 13 connected to the side beam are provided with brackets 3. The brackets 3 are connected to the vertical beams 13 and supported below the mounting base 2. Since the side beam and the brackets 3 are connected to the side surface of the vertical beams 13 facing the receiving space, and part of the structure of the side beam and part of the structure of the brackets 3 are located below the mounting base 2.

[0102] To avoid interference between the bracket 3 and the side beam, ensure the contact area and connection stability between the bracket 3 and the vertical beam 13, and reduce the production difficulty and cost of the bracket 3, the connection position between the bracket 3 and the vertical beam 13 is located below the side beam. The bracket 3 spans a portion of the side beam to be supported below the mounting base 2. Thus, both the bracket 3 and the side beam can be connected to the vertical beam.

[0103] In some other embodiments, the bracket 3 is connected to at least one side beam, and the bracket 3 is connected to and supported under the mounting base 2.

[0104] The bracket 3 can also be connected to both the vertical beam 13 and the side beam to form a whole, resulting in higher strength at the connection point and ensuring the stability of the bracket 3, which in turn ensures the stability of the mounting base 2. In some embodiments, the side beam has a stop protrusion 121 on the side facing the receiving space, and the mounting base 2 has a mating surface 21. The mating surface 21 is located above the stop protrusion 121 and has a gap with it. The stop protrusion 121 can provide auxiliary support for the mounting base 2 after the bracket 3 structure deforms or fails.

[0105] Specifically, during installation, the supporting surfaces of multiple brackets 3 are slightly higher than the supporting surfaces of the stop protrusions 121. After the mounting base 2 is installed, the mounting base 2 is supported above the brackets 3, with a gap between it and the stop protrusions 121. The stop protrusions 121 do not support the mounting base 2. After the entire machine is installed and the user has used it for a period of time, the brackets 3 may bend and deform downwards. At this time, the stop protrusions 121 can assist the brackets 3 in supporting the mounting base 2, ensuring the stability of the mounting base 2 and improving the service life of the garment processing equipment.

[0106] There is a gap between the mounting base 2 and the stop protrusion 121. This gap can be filled with sound-insulating materials such as sponge to better achieve vibration buffering and noise reduction of the clothing handling device.

[0107] A garment handling apparatus according to a second aspect of the present invention includes a frame assembly 100 according to the above-described embodiment.

[0108] A specific embodiment of the garment processing device is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0109] like Figures 1-16 As shown, the garment processing device includes: a first garment processing module, a second garment processing module, a support frame 1, a mounting base 2, and multiple brackets 3.

[0110] The support frame 1 defines the accommodating space, and the mounting base 2 is located in the accommodating space and connected to the support frame 1 to divide the accommodating space into upper and lower parts. The upper part is equipped with the first clothing processing module, and the lower part is equipped with the second clothing processing module.

[0111] The support frame 1 includes: a first side crossbeam 14, a second side crossbeam 15, two third side crossbeams 12 located on the left and right sides, a square base 11, and four vertical beams 13. The lower ends of the four vertical beams 13 are connected to the four corners of the square base 11 to form the base of the support frame 1, defining the accommodating space. The two ends of the first side crossbeam 14, the second side crossbeam 15, and the two third side crossbeams 12 located on the left and right sides are connected to the middle of the two adjacent vertical beams 13 at their respective lengths, and are arranged around the mounting base 2.

[0112] The vertical beam 13 includes a first plate portion 131 and a second plate portion 132. The length of the first plate portion 131 extends vertically and the width extends horizontally. The length of the second plate portion 132 extends vertically and the width extends longitudinally. One side of the width of the second plate portion 132 is connected to one side of the width of the first plate portion 131.

[0113] In some embodiments, the lateral direction refers to the left-right direction of the garment handling device, and the longitudinal direction refers to the front-back direction of the garment handling device. The right edge of the first plate portion 131 of the vertical beam 13 located on the right rear side is connected to the rear edge of the second plate portion 132. The left edge of the first plate portion 131 of the vertical beam 13 located on the left rear side is connected to the rear edge of the second plate portion 132. The right edge of the first plate portion 131 of the vertical beam 13 located on the right front side is connected to the front edge of the second plate portion 132. The left edge of the first plate portion 131 of the vertical beam 13 located on the left front side is connected to the front edge of the second plate portion 132.

[0114] The first side crossbeam 14 is connected to the first plate portion 131 of the front vertical beam 13, the second side crossbeam 15 is connected to the first plate portion 131 of the rear vertical beam 13, the third side crossbeam 12 on the left is connected to the second plate portion 132 of the left vertical beam 13, and the third side crossbeam 12 on the right is connected to the second plate portion 132 of the right vertical beam 13.

[0115] The lower part of the third side beam 12 has a stop protrusion 121 on the side facing the accommodating space. The mounting base 2 has a mating surface 21, which is located above the stop protrusion 121 and has a gap with the stop protrusion 121. The stop protrusion 121 can assist in supporting the mounting base 2 after the support 3 structure is deformed or malfunctions.

[0116] Between the third side beam 12 and the square base 11, a portion of the second plate portion 132 is recessed into the receiving space to form a mounting recess 1321 for mounting wiring components on the outer surface of the second plate portion 132, and a protrusion 1322 is formed on the inner surface of the second plate portion 132.

[0117] Four brackets 3 together support the mounting base 2. The brackets 3 are connected one-to-one with the protrusions 1322 on the second plate portion 132 of the four vertical beams 13. The protrusions 1322 are provided with connecting portions 133, and the brackets 3 are provided with first mating portions 34 and second mating portions 35. The connecting portions 133 are connected to the first mating portions 34 or the second mating portions 35. Through the connection of the connecting portions 133 with the first mating portions 34 or the second mating portions 35, the brackets 3 can be stably fixed on the vertical beams 13, ensuring the stability of the brackets 3 in setting and the stability of the support and fixation of the brackets 3 on the mounting base 2.

[0118] Therefore, not only can the contact area at the connection between the bracket 3 and the vertical beam 13 be ensured, but the setting of the protrusion 1322 also helps the bracket 3 to avoid the connection part 133 between the third side beam 12 and the vertical beam 13 and cooperate with the mounting base 2 for support. Furthermore, the protrusion 1322 can improve the strength at the connection between the vertical beam 13 and the bracket 3, ensuring the stability of the connection between the bracket 3 and the vertical beam 13.

[0119] During installation, the supporting surfaces of multiple brackets 3 are slightly higher than the supporting surfaces of the stop protrusions 121. After the mounting base 2 is installed, the mounting base 2 is supported above the brackets 3, with a gap between it and the stop protrusions 121. The stop protrusions 121 do not support the mounting base 2. After the entire machine is installed and the user has used it for a period of time, the brackets 3 may bend and deform downwards. At this time, the stop protrusions 121 can assist the brackets 3 in supporting the mounting base 2, ensuring the stability of the mounting base 2 and improving the service life of the garment processing equipment.

[0120] The weight of the mounting base 2 acts on the bracket 3, which can directly transmit the force to the vertical beam 13. The vertical beam 13 extends vertically, and the weight is transmitted along the extension direction of the vertical beam 13. The force transmission effect on the support frame 1 is better, which avoids the installation of the mounting base 2 from affecting the stability of the support frame 1 structure. It also ensures the stability of the support installation of the mounting base 2, thereby ensuring the overall stability of the frame assembly 100.

[0121] The bracket 3 includes a first support plate 31 and a second support plate 32. One of the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32 is connected to the vertical beam 13, and the other is used to support the mounting base 2. The angle between the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32 is 90 degrees. As a result, the support plate used to support the mounting base 2 is subjected to uniform force, thus avoiding deformation of the bracket 3 under force.

[0122] One end of the first support plate 31 along its length is connected to one end of the second support plate 32 along its length. To ensure the strength of the connection between the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32 and to prevent deformation and breakage at the connection, a reinforcing part 33 is provided at the connection between the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32. The reinforcing part 33 can enhance the rigidity of the connection between the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32 and prevent bending and deformation at the connection. The reinforcing part 33 extends from the first support plate 31 to the second support plate 32 so that the position of the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32 near the connection can also be strengthened, further improving the support stability of the bracket 3.

[0123] There are two reinforcing parts 33, and the two reinforcing protrusions are arranged in the extension direction of the connection, so as to increase the structural strength of the reinforcing part 33 without affecting the production cost of the bracket 3.

[0124] The first support plate 31 of the bracket 3 has two sets of first mating parts 34 symmetrically arranged in its width direction, and the second support plate 32 has a second mating part 35. Either the first support plate 31 or the second support plate 32 can be connected to the vertical beam 13 without considering the installation direction, making the bracket 3 more versatile.

[0125] The first mating part 34 or the second mating part 35 includes a first mating hole 36. The vertical beam 13 and the bracket 3 are connected by fasteners. The fasteners pass through the connection hole 1331 and the first mating hole 36. The fasteners can stably connect the bracket 3 and the vertical beam 13 together. When affected by external forces, the bracket 3 will not detach from the vertical beam 13.

[0126] The connecting part 133 includes a positioning protrusion 1332, and the first mating part 34 or the second mating part 35 includes a positioning hole 37. The positioning protrusion 1332 is inserted into the positioning hole 37. Therefore, during the process of fixing the bracket 3 to the vertical beam 13, the positioning protrusion 1332 can be inserted into the positioning hole 37 first, which can ensure the accuracy of the bracket 3's setting position and ensure that the bracket 3 can support the mounting base 2.

[0127] During installation, the positioning protrusion 1332 is first inserted into the positioning hole 37 to ensure the accuracy of the bracket 3's position and to ensure that the bracket 3 can support the mounting base 2. Then, the fasteners are tightened by machine to fix the vertical beam 13 and the bracket 3. At this time, the cooperation between the positioning protrusion 1332 and the positioning hole 37 can also prevent the bracket 3 from rotating.

[0128] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in the present invention can be combined with each other.
