[0002] This application is based on and claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 202510097383.7, filed on January 21, 2025, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. Technical Field
[0003] This application relates to the field of clothing processing technology, and more particularly to a clothing processing device. Background Technology
[0004] Taking a pulsator-type garment processing equipment as an example, with the external dimensions of the cabinet remaining unchanged, as the washing volume increases, the gap between the drum assembly and the cabinet becomes smaller and smaller. During the washing or spin-drying process, the drum assembly will vibrate and sway, and is prone to impacting the cabinet, affecting the safety of the garment processing equipment. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In view of this, embodiments of this application aim to provide a garment processing device that helps reduce the vibration energy transmitted from the drum assembly to the box.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of this application embodiment is implemented as follows:
[0007] This application provides a garment processing device, including:
[0008] Box;
[0009] A barrel assembly is disposed within the box body;
[0010] First rod;
[0011] Multiple vibration damping components are disposed between the housing and the barrel assembly. The multiple vibration damping components are distributed at intervals along the circumference of the barrel assembly. Each vibration damping component includes a first moving component and a second moving component. The first moving component and the second moving component are rotatably connected. The end of the first moving component away from the rotatable connection is connected to the housing or to the housing through the first rod. The end of the second moving component away from the rotatable connection is connected to the barrel assembly.
[0012] When the barrel assembly is in a stationary state, the included angle between the first moving member and the second moving member is a first included angle, which is less than 180°;
[0013] The openings of the first included angle of at least two of the vibration damping components are oriented in the same direction in the clockwise direction or in the same direction in the counterclockwise direction.
[0014] In some embodiments, the openings of the first included angle of the at least two vibration damping components are oriented in the same direction and both face the dehydration rotation direction of the barrel assembly.
[0015] In some implementations, the openings of the first included angle of all the vibration damping components are oriented toward the dehydration rotation direction of the barrel assembly.
[0016] In some implementations, the plurality of vibration damping components are centrally symmetrically distributed with respect to the centerline of the barrel assembly.
[0017] In some implementations, the first included angle is 50° to 120°.
[0018] In some implementations, the rotational connection between the first moving member and the second moving member defines a first axis of rotation;
[0019] Wherein, the first rotation axis is parallel to the axis of the bucket assembly; or, the first rotation axis forms an acute angle with the axis of the bucket assembly, and the angle does not exceed 10°.
[0020] In some embodiments, the first moving member and the second moving member enclose an annular cavity, and the vibration damping assembly includes a damping member disposed in the annular cavity, the damping member being used to provide damping force during relative rotation of the first moving member and the second moving member.
[0021] In some embodiments, the rotatable connection between the first and second moving members defines a first axis of rotation, and the damping member includes a first end face and a second end face at opposite ends along the direction of the first axis of rotation, the first end face facing the top wall of the annular cavity and the second end face facing the bottom wall of the annular cavity.
[0022] Wherein, the first end face is spaced apart from the top wall of the annular cavity; and / or, the second end face is spaced apart from the bottom wall of the annular cavity.
[0023] In some implementations, the first moving component includes a first connecting end, which is connected to the housing via the first rod. The first connecting end is provided with a through hole and a through groove that communicate with each other. The first rod passes through the through hole, and the through groove passes through the axially opposite end faces of the through hole. The first connecting end is capable of rotating around the circumference of the first rod and / or sliding along the extension direction of the first rod.
[0024] In some embodiments, the wall of the through hole extends toward the axis of the through hole from opposite ends along the axial direction of the through hole toward the middle position of the through hole along its axial direction.
[0025] In some embodiments, the garment handling device includes a second rod connected to the circumferential outer side of the tub assembly, the second moving part including a second connecting end having a through hole, the sidewall of the second rod having a deformation groove allowing the second rod to contract at least partially inward so that the second rod passes through the through hole, and the second connecting end being circumferentially rotatable about the second rod.
[0026] The garment processing equipment provided in this application embodiment has multiple vibration damping components distributed circumferentially around the drum assembly. This allows the vibration damping components to absorb and disperse the vibration energy of the drum assembly in multiple directions, helping to reduce the vibration energy transmitted from the drum assembly to the housing. The first and second moving parts are rotatably connected; that is, the transmission of vibration of the drum assembly is achieved through the relative rotation of the first and second moving parts. This facilitates adaptive movement of the first and second moving parts as the vibration position of the drum assembly changes, increasing the vibration damping reliability of the damping components. Furthermore, the openings of the first included angles of at least two vibration damping components face the same direction in the clockwise or counterclockwise direction, ensuring that the changing trends of the at least two first included angles are the same. This allows the at least two vibration damping components to work together to provide a better vibration damping effect, thereby helping to maintain the balance of the garment processing equipment.

Detailed Implementation
[0040] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the invention.
[0041] The specific technical features described in the specific embodiments can be combined in any suitable manner without contradiction. For example, different combinations of specific technical features can form different embodiments and technical solutions. To avoid unnecessary repetition, the various possible combinations of the specific technical features in this invention will not be described separately.
[0042] In the following description, the terms "first," "second," etc., are used merely to distinguish different objects and do not indicate that the objects have the sameness or relationship. It should be understood that the directional descriptions "above," "below," "outside," and "inside" refer to the orientation under normal use conditions, while "left" and "right" refer to the left and right directions shown in the corresponding diagrams, which may or may not be the left and right directions under normal use conditions.
[0043] It should be noted that the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such a process, method, article, or apparatus. Unless otherwise specified, an element defined by the phrase "comprising one..." does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article, or apparatus that includes that element. "A plurality of" means two or more.
[0044] This application provides a garment processing device 100. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 1 and Figure 2 The garment processing equipment 100 includes a box 1, a bucket assembly 2, a first rod 4, and multiple vibration damping components 3.
[0045] The bucket assembly 2 is housed inside the housing 1. The housing 1 provides storage space and protection for the bucket assembly 2, isolating it from the outside world and reducing the chance of dust and other impurities coming into contact with it. When the garment processing equipment 100 is subjected to impact, the housing 1 can also effectively withstand the external impact, reducing the chance of damage to the bucket assembly 2.
[0046] It is understood that the tub assembly 2 may include an inner tub and an outer tub, with the inner tub disposed inside the outer tub, and the space within the inner tub defining the clothes handling chamber. The inner tub may be a perforated inner tub or a non-perforated inner tub. When the inner tub is a perforated inner tub, it relies on the outer tub to hold water; when the inner tub is a non-perforated inner tub, it relies on the inner tub itself to hold water. That is to say, the inner tub can both hold water and clothes, and during the washing process, the water in the inner tub will not enter the outer tub. In some embodiments, the tub assembly 2 may only have an inner tub and no outer tub. In this case, the inner tub is a non-perforated inner tub, and a support structure is provided on the outer periphery of the inner tub to facilitate rotational support of the inner tub.
[0047] It should be noted that the vibration damping component 3 does not affect the rotation of the inner tub.
[0048] In this embodiment, the bucket assembly 2, which includes an inner bucket and an outer bucket, is used as an example for explanation.
[0049] Understandably, in existing technologies, when clothing processing equipment is in the washing or spin-drying state, the inner tub rotates, and the clothes inside the inner tub will shift during the rotation, causing the center of gravity of the inner tub to shift. This results in the inner tub rotating eccentrically, causing the outer tub to vibrate and wobble. When the degree of eccentricity of the inner tub rotation increases, the amplitude of the outer tub will also increase, making the tub assembly more likely to collide with the chamber, affecting the spin-drying process.
[0050] Please see Figure 2 Multiple vibration damping components 3 are disposed between the housing 1 and the tub assembly 2, and are spaced apart circumferentially along the tub assembly 2. The vibration damping components 3 are used to absorb the vibration energy of the tub assembly 2 during washing or spin-drying operations, reducing the vibration displacement of the tub assembly 2 and lowering the probability of the tub assembly 2 impacting the housing 1. The multiple vibration damping components 3 are spaced apart along the axis of the tub assembly 2, enabling them to absorb and disperse the vibration energy of the tub assembly 2 in multiple directions, thus helping to reduce the vibration energy transmitted from the tub assembly 2 to the housing 1.
[0051] In this embodiment of the application, "multiple" means no less than two, for example, it can be two, three, four, five, six or more, etc.
[0052] Please see Figure 5 The vibration damping component 3 includes a first moving part 31 and a second moving part 32, which are rotatably connected. The end of the first moving part 31 away from the rotatable connection is connected to the housing 1 or to the housing 1 via a first rod 4. The end of the second moving part 32 away from the rotatable connection is connected to the drum assembly 2. That is, when the clothing processing equipment 100 is in washing or spin-drying mode, the vibration of the drum assembly 2 is first transmitted to the end of the second moving part 32 away from the rotatable connection, then transmitted to the first moving part 31 through the rotatable connection, then to the end of the first moving part 31 away from the rotatable connection, and finally to the housing 1.
[0053] The first moving part 31 and the second moving part 32 are rotatably connected. That is, the vibration of the bucket assembly 2 is transmitted through the relative rotation of the first moving part 31 and the second moving part 32. This facilitates the adaptive movement of the first moving part 31 and the second moving part 32 as the vibration position of the bucket assembly 2 changes, thereby increasing the vibration damping reliability of the damping assembly 3.
[0054] In some embodiments, when the barrel assembly 2 is in a stationary state, the included angle between the first moving member 31 and the second moving member 32 is a first included angle, which is less than 180°. That is, the included angle between the line connecting the center of the first end and the second end of the first moving member 31 and the line connecting the center of the first end and the second end of the second moving member 32 is less than 180°.
[0055] Please see Figure 7Taking the first moving member 31 as a reference, the line A1 connecting the centers of the first end and the second end of the first moving member 31 and the line A2 connecting the centers of the first end and the second end of the second moving member 32 are along... Figure 7 The first included angle α between the clockwise directions shown is less than 180°.
[0056] The openings of the first included angle α of at least two vibration damping components 3 are oriented in the same direction in the clockwise direction or in the same direction in the counterclockwise direction.
[0057] It should be noted that the openings of the first included angle α facing the same direction in the clockwise direction or the same direction in the counterclockwise direction means that the openings of the first included angle α all face the dehydration rotation direction of the barrel assembly 2, or that the openings of the first included angle α all face the opposite direction to the dehydration rotation direction of the barrel assembly 2.
[0058] It should be noted that the rotation direction of the drum assembly 2 during dehydration refers to the rotation direction of the inner drum when the drum assembly 2 rotates under dehydration conditions. For example, Figure 4 The arrow in the middle indicates the direction ( Figure 4 The dehydration rotation direction is the clockwise direction of the paper surface, that is, the inner barrel of the barrel assembly 2 rotates in the clockwise direction, and the direction opposite to the dehydration rotation direction of the barrel assembly 2 is the counterclockwise direction; or, the inner barrel of the barrel assembly 2 rotates in the counterclockwise direction, and the direction opposite to the dehydration rotation direction of the barrel assembly 2 is the clockwise direction.
[0059] Please see Figure 4 In this embodiment, the dehydration rotation direction of the bucket assembly 2 is described as clockwise.
[0060] In the implementation of this application embodiment, when the inner tub of the tub assembly 2 rotates along the dehydration rotation direction, the openings of the first included angle α of at least two vibration damping components 3 face the same direction. Under the action of centrifugal force, at least two first included angle α tend to increase or decrease, that is, at least two first included angle α have the same trend of change, so that at least two vibration damping components 3 work together to provide a better vibration damping effect, thereby helping to maintain the balance of the clothing processing equipment.
[0061] In some embodiments, the openings of the first included angle α of at least two vibration damping components 3 are the same and both face the dehydration rotation direction of the barrel assembly 2.
[0062] In this embodiment, the opening of the first included angle α faces the dehydration rotation direction. When the inner barrel of the barrel assembly 2 rotates along the dehydration rotation direction, the centrifugal force tends to increase the first included angle α. The opening of the first included angle α tends to increase, which in turn tends to increase the distance between the end of the first moving member 31 away from the second moving member 32 and the end of the second moving member 32 away from the first moving member 31. This increases the rotational resistance of the first moving member 31 and the second moving member 32, thereby helping to reduce the vibration amplitude of the barrel assembly 2 and thus reducing the vibration energy transmitted from the barrel assembly 2 to the box body 1.
[0063] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 4 The openings of the first included angle α of all vibration damping components 3 face the direction of rotation of the drum assembly 2 during dehydration. That is, the openings of all the first included angle α face the same direction and are all oriented towards the direction of rotation of the drum assembly 2 during dehydration. This ensures that all vibration damping components 3 can reduce the vibration amplitude of the drum assembly 2, thereby improving the vibration damping effect of the vibration damping components 3. Furthermore, the fact that all the openings of the first included angle α face the same direction helps to further maintain the balance of the garment processing equipment.
[0064] In some embodiments, multiple vibration damping components 3 are arranged in a centrally symmetrical manner with respect to the centerline L1 of the barrel assembly 2.
[0065] It should be noted that the centrally symmetrical arrangement means that after rotating multiple vibration damping components 3 180 degrees around the center line L1 of the barrel assembly 2, they can coincide with the multiple vibration damping components 3 before the rotation.
[0066] In this embodiment, the centrally symmetrical arrangement is beneficial for the multiple vibration damping components 3 to be subjected to more uniform force in the circumference of the barrel assembly 2, which helps to further improve the vibration damping effect of the vibration damping components 3 on the barrel assembly.
[0067] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 7 The first included angle α is 50° to 120°, that is, 50°≤α≤120°, for example, 50°, 55°, 60°, 63°, 69°, 72°, 75°, 86°, 90°, 95°, 100°, 110°, 120°, etc.
[0068] In this embodiment, when the bucket assembly 2 is in a stationary state, the included angle between the first moving part 31 and the second moving part 32 is within a suitable range. On the one hand, this facilitates the relative rotation of the first moving part 31 and the second moving part 32 under the vibration of the bucket assembly 2. On the other hand, it also ensures that the first moving part 31 and the second moving part 32 have a sufficient range of rotation when they rotate relative to each other, thereby increasing the vibration damping reliability of the vibration damping assembly 3.
[0069] In some embodiments, the first rotating member 31 and the second rotating member 32 are rotatably connected to define a first rotation axis L2.
[0070] It should be noted that the first rotation axis L2 is defined at the rotatable connection between the first moving member 31 and the second moving member 32, which means that at least one of the first moving member 31 and the second moving member 32 can rotate around the first rotation axis L2, thereby causing the first moving member 31 and the second moving member 32 to rotate relative to each other.
[0071] In some embodiments, the first rotation axis L2 is parallel to the axis L1 of the barrel assembly 2.
[0072] It is understandable that during washing or spin-drying, the tub assembly 2 will vibrate in both the horizontal and vertical directions, with the horizontal vibration being the dominant one. The vertical vibration displacement of the tub assembly 2 is small and it is not easy to collide with the tub, while the horizontal vibration displacement of the tub assembly 2 is large and is likely to exceed the horizontal gap between the box body 1 and the tub assembly 2 and collide with the box body 1. Therefore, it is necessary to effectively suppress the horizontal vibration of the tub assembly 2.
[0073] It is understood that the horizontal direction refers to the direction parallel to the horizontal plane after the garment processing equipment 100 is placed on a horizontal ground, such as the left-right direction, the front-back direction, and other horizontal directions that intersect with the left-right and front-back directions.
[0074] For example, the height direction is Figure 1 and Figure 11 The directions shown include both top-down and bottom-up directions.
[0075] In this embodiment, when the tub assembly 2 vibrates and wobbles, the first moving part 31 and the second moving part 32 of the vibration damping component 3 can rotate relative to each other around their connection point and define the first rotation axis L2. Since the first rotation axis L2 is parallel to the height direction, that is, the first moving part 31 and the second moving part 32 rotate relative to each other in the horizontal direction. The resistance of the relative rotation between the first moving part 31 and the second moving part 32 is approximately in the horizontal direction, which is used to reduce the horizontal vibration of the tub assembly 2, effectively suppress the horizontal vibration of the tub assembly 2, reduce the vibration displacement of the tub assembly 2, reduce the probability of the tub assembly 2 hitting the box 1, and thus reduce the noise of the clothing processing equipment 100.
[0076] It is understandable that the first rotation axis L2 is parallel to the axis L1 of the barrel assembly 2, allowing for certain processing and assembly errors. That is, the angle between the first rotation axis L2 and the axis L1 of the barrel assembly 2 can be 0° or close to 0°.
[0077] In other embodiments, the first rotation axis L2 forms an acute angle with the axis L1 of the barrel assembly 2, and the acute angle does not exceed 10°.
[0078] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 8 The axis L1 of the bucket assembly 2 and the first rotation axis L2 are two spatially skew lines. In this embodiment, the acute angle refers to the angle formed between the first rotation axis L2 and the bucket assembly 2 in the same plane after the first rotation axis L2 is translated to intersect with the axis L1 of the bucket assembly 2.
[0079] In some embodiments, the first moving member 31 and the second moving member 32 surround an annular cavity 3a, and the vibration damping assembly 3 includes a damping member 33 disposed in the annular cavity 3a. The damping member 33 is used to provide damping force during the relative rotation of the first moving member 31 and the second moving member 32.
[0080] The annular cavity 3a is the space between the first annular portion 311 and the second annular portion 321. The damping element is disposed in the annular cavity 3a, that is, the damping element 33 is disposed between the first annular portion 311 and the second annular portion 321. The annular cavity 3a can provide installation space for the damping element 33 and can also limit the position of the damping element 33.
[0081] It is understandable that the form in which the damping element 33 provides damping force is not limited. For example, it can generate frictional damping by rubbing against the first moving element 31 and the second moving element 32 respectively. It can also generate elastic damping by using the elastic deformation of the damping element 33 to compress the first moving element 31 and the second moving element 32. Alternatively, the damping element can generate elastic deformation while rubbing against the first moving element 31 and the second moving element 32.
[0082] In this embodiment, when the bucket assembly 2 vibrates and wobbles, the first moving part 31 and the second moving part 32 rotate relative to each other. The damping part 33 provides damping force during the relative rotation of the first moving part 31 and the second moving part 32 to suppress the vibration of the bucket assembly 2. That is, the damping force reduces the vibration of the bucket assembly 2, so as to achieve vibration buffering of the bucket assembly 2 and thereby reduce the noise of the whole machine.
[0083] It is understandable that the formation of the annular cavity 3a is not limited. For example, the first moving member 31 includes a first annular portion 311, and the second moving member 32 includes a second annular portion 321. The first annular portion 311 and the second annular portion 321 are nested together. In this case, the annular cavity 3a is the space between the first annular portion 311 and the second annular portion 321.
[0084] The first annular portion 311 and the second annular portion 321 are nested together, meaning that either the first annular portion 311 is embedded within the second annular portion 321, or the second annular portion 321 is embedded within the first annular portion 311.
[0085] Please see Figure 8 In some embodiments, the first annular portion 311 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the second annular portion 321.
[0086] The material of the damping element 33 is not limited. For example, the damping element 33 can be made of polyurethane foam material with high wear resistance or soft rubber material with high wear resistance, so that the surface of the damping element 33 has a high coefficient of friction and can deform to cooperate with the first moving element 31 and the second moving element 32.
[0087] It is understood that, in other embodiments, the damping element 33 may also be made of a semi-metallic friction material or the like to provide frictional damping during the relative rotation of the first moving element 31 and the second moving element 32.
[0088] In some embodiments, the damping element 33 includes a first end face 331 and a second end face 332 at opposite ends along the direction of the first rotation axis L2. The first end face 331 faces the top wall of the annular cavity 3a, and the second end face 332 faces the bottom wall of the annular cavity 3a. The top and bottom walls of the annular cavity 3a can reduce the probability of the damping element disengaging from the annular cavity 3a.
[0089] For example, the first end face 331 is spaced apart from the top wall of the annular cavity 3a; and / or, the second end face 332 is spaced apart from the bottom wall of the annular cavity 3a. This embodiment includes the following three cases:
[0090] The first configuration involves a first end face 331 spaced apart from the top wall of the annular cavity 3a, and a second end face 332 contacting the bottom wall of the annular cavity 3a. In this configuration, the damping force provided by the damping element 33 is mainly generated by the contact between the damping element 33 and the first moving element 31 and the second moving element 32 on opposite sides along a direction perpendicular to the first rotation axis L2, as well as by the contact between the second end face 332 and the bottom wall of the annular cavity 3a. This reduces the influence of the first end face 331 on the damping force, making it easier to control the magnitude of the damping force during design and manufacturing, and helping to reduce the deviation between the actual and expected vibration reduction performance of the vibration damping assembly 3.
[0091] The second configuration involves a spaced-apart second end face 332 from the bottom wall of the annular cavity 3a, with the first end face 331 contacting the top wall of the annular cavity 3a. In this configuration, the damping force provided by the damping element 33 is mainly generated by the contact between the damping element and the first moving element 31 and the second moving element 32 on opposite sides along a direction perpendicular to the first rotation axis L2, as well as the contact between the first end face 331 and the top wall of the annular cavity 3a. This reduces the influence of the second end face 332 on the damping force, making it easier to control the magnitude of the damping force during design and manufacturing. This helps to reduce the deviation between the actual and expected vibration reduction performance of the vibration damping assembly 3.
[0092] The third configuration: the first end face 331 is spaced apart from the top wall of the annular cavity 3a, and the second end face 332 is spaced apart from the bottom wall of the annular cavity 3a. In this case, the damping force provided by the damping element 33 is mainly generated by the contact between the damping element 33 and the first moving element 31 and the second moving element 32 on opposite sides along the direction perpendicular to the first rotation axis L2. At this time, the first end face 331 and the second end face 332 have no effect on the damping force, which helps to further improve the control accuracy of the damping force, so as to further reduce the deviation between the actual vibration reduction performance and the expected vibration reduction performance of the vibration damping assembly 3.
[0093] In some embodiments, such as Figure 6 and Figure 8 As shown, the first moving member 31 includes a first end plate 312 connected to the first annular portion 311, and the second moving member 32 includes a second end plate 322 connected to the second annular portion 321. The first annular portion 311 and the second annular portion 321 are located between the first end plate 312 and the second end plate 322. The first end plate 312 and the second end plate 322 can provide support for the first annular portion 311 and the second annular portion 321, and the first annular portion 311 and the second annular portion 321 are confined between the first end plate 312 and the second end plate 322. This can increase the docking stability of the first annular portion 311 and the second annular portion 321, reduce the probability of the docking of the first annular portion 311 and the second annular portion 321 becoming loose, and at the same time, it can also reduce the probability of the damping member 33 coming out of the annular cavity 3a, and isolate the damping member 33 from other components outside the vibration damping assembly 3, so that the installation stability of the vibration damping assembly 3 is good.
[0094] In the embodiment where the first annular portion 311 is fitted around the outer periphery of the second annular portion 321, the top wall of the annular cavity 3a forms part of the first end plate 312, and the bottom wall of the annular cavity 3a forms part of the second end plate 322.
[0095] In some embodiments, the first end plate 312 and the second end plate 322 are arranged in parallel. This further increases the smoothness of the first moving member 31 and the second moving member 32 when they rotate relative to each other.
[0096] Please see Figure 6 and Figure 8 The vibration damping component 3 also includes a connector 35, which passes through the first end plate 312 and the second end plate 322.
[0097] Specifically, the connector 35 can connect the first end plate 312 and the second end plate 322, thereby fixing the first annular portion 311 and the second annular portion 321 along the direction of the first rotation axis L2, reducing the probability of the first annular portion 311 dislodging from the second annular portion 321 or the second annular portion 321 dislodging from the first annular portion 311. At the same time, it can also reduce the probability of the damping member 33 dislodging from the annular cavity 3a, increasing the installation stability of the vibration damping assembly 3, and also increasing the stability of the first moving member 31 and the second moving member 32 when they rotate relative to each other.
[0098] The specific structure of the connector 35 is not limited, as long as it can connect the first moving part 31 and the second moving part 32 without affecting the relative rotation of the first moving part 31 and the second moving part 32. For example, the connector 35 can be a rivet.
[0099] It is understood that the garment handling equipment 100 may also include a gasket 34, see [link / reference]. Figure 6 and Figure 8 When the first annular portion 311 surrounds the outer periphery of the second annular portion 321, the gasket 34 is disposed on the first end plate 312, and the connector 35 passes through the gasket 34, the first end plate 312, and the second end plate 322 in sequence. The gasket 34 can protect the first end plate 312 and reduce the probability of damage to the first end plate 312.
[0100] When the second annular portion 321 surrounds the outer periphery of the first annular portion 311, the gasket 34 is disposed on the second end plate 322, and the connector 35 passes through the gasket 34, the second end plate 322, and the first end plate 312 in sequence.
[0101] In some embodiments, the second annular portion 321 surrounds the outer periphery of the first annular portion 311, and the inner surface of the second annular portion 321 is provided with a rib 3111 protruding toward the first annular portion 311. The sidewall of the damping member 33 has a notch 33a, and the rib 3111 is inserted into the notch 33a.
[0102] Alternatively, please see Figure 8 The first annular portion 311 surrounds the outer periphery of the second annular portion 321. The inner surface of the first annular portion 311 has a rib 3111 protruding toward the second annular portion 321. The side wall of the damping member 33 has a notch 33a, and the rib 3111 is inserted into the notch 33a.
[0103] In this embodiment, the cooperation between the rib 3111 and the notch 33a notches not only enables the installation and positioning of the damping component 33, but also reduces the probability of the damping component 33 rotating in the annular cavity 3a when the first moving component 31 and the second moving component 32 do not rotate relative to each other after the damping component 33 is installed, thereby increasing the installation stability of the vibration damping assembly 3.
[0104] It should be noted that in the embodiment where the second annular portion 321 surrounds the outer periphery of the first annular portion 311, when the first moving member 31 and the second moving member 32 rotate relative to each other, since the rib 3111 is located on the inner surface of the second annular portion 321, the damping member 33 does not rotate relative to the second moving member 32, but rotates relative to the first moving member 31.
[0105] Similarly, in the embodiment where the first annular portion 311 surrounds the outer periphery of the second annular portion 321, when the first moving member 31 and the second moving member 32 rotate relative to each other, since the rib 3111 is located on the inner surface of the first annular portion 311, the damping member 33 does not rotate relative to the first moving member 31, but rotates relative to the second moving member 32.
[0106] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 As shown, the first moving component 31 includes a first connecting end 313, which is connected to the housing 1 via a first rod 4. The first connecting end 313 has a through hole 313a and a through groove 313b that communicate with each other. The first rod 4 passes through the through hole 313a, and the through groove 313b passes through the axially opposite end faces of the through hole 313a. The first connecting end 313 is capable of rotating around the circumference of the first rod 4 and / or sliding along the extension direction of the first rod 4.
[0107] It should be noted that the through groove 313b penetrates the axial end faces of the through hole 313a, meaning that the hole wall of the through hole 313a is disconnected in the circumferential direction. The through hole 313a and the through groove 313b have a certain elastic deformation capacity. During the process of the first rod 4 passing through the through hole 313a, or when the first connecting end 313 moves relative to the first rod 4, the through hole 313a and the through groove 313b can undergo elastic deformation to adapt to the required hole diameter of the through hole 313a when the first rod 4 is installed or when the first connecting end 313 moves relative to the first rod 4.
[0108] It should be noted that the first connecting end 313 can rotate around the circumference of the first rod 4 and / or slide along the extension direction of the first rod 4, including at least three cases.
[0109] The first type: The first connecting end 313 can rotate around the circumference of the first rod 4. Thus, the first connecting end 313 has at least one rotational degree of freedom.
[0110] The second type: the first connecting end 313 can slide along the extension direction of the first rod 4. In this way, the first connecting end 313 has at least one sliding degree of freedom.
[0111] The third type: the first connecting end 313 can rotate around the circumference of the first rod 4 and slide along the extension direction of the first rod 4. Thus, the first connecting end 313 has at least one rotational degree of freedom and one sliding degree of freedom.
[0112] This application embodiment is illustrated by taking the first connecting end 313 as an example, which can rotate around the first rod 4 in the circumferential direction and slide along the extension direction of the first rod 4.
[0113] In this embodiment, when the clothing processing equipment 100 is in the washing or spin-drying state, the vibration energy of the tub assembly 2 can be transmitted through the second moving member 32 to the end of the first moving member 31 that is rotatably connected to the second moving member 32, and then to the first connecting end 313. When the tub assembly 2 vibrates and sways, the first connecting end 313 may sway relative to the first rod 4. The first rod 4 forces the through hole 313a and the through groove 313b to undergo elastic deformation to increase the diameter of the through hole 313a, thereby buffering the interference between the hole wall of the through hole 313a and the first rod 4, reducing the probability of the first rod 4 getting stuck in the through hole 313a, increasing the smoothness of the vibration damping component 3 rotating around the first rod 4 and / or sliding along the extension direction of the first rod 4, so as to adapt to the vibration displacement of the tub assembly 2 in different vibration directions when the tub assembly 2 moves violently, making it easier to absorb the vibration energy of the tub assembly 2, reducing the probability of the tub assembly 2 hitting the housing 1, and thus reducing the noise of the whole machine.
[0114] It is understood that the first connecting end 313 is connected to the housing 1 via the first rod 4. This can be achieved in some embodiments; please refer to [reference needed]. Figures 1 to 4 The garment processing equipment 100 includes multiple hanging rods 6, one end of each hanging rod 6 is connected to a tub assembly 2, and the other end is connected to a housing 1. The tub assembly 2 is suspended from the housing 1 by the multiple hanging rods 6. In this embodiment, the first rod 4 is part of the hanging rod 6, or the first rod 4 is connected to the hanging rod 6. This achieves the connection between the first rod 4 and the housing 1.
[0115] Specifically, the top end of the hanging rod 6 is fixed to the housing 1, and the bottom end of the hanging rod 6 is fixed to the bucket assembly 2. There can be four hanging rods 6. The top ends of the four hanging rods 6 correspond to the four corners of the top of the housing 1, and the bottom ends of the four hanging rods 6 are fixed to the side walls of the bucket assembly 2 corresponding to the four corners of the housing 1. In this way, each hanging rod 6 can evenly distribute the weight of the bucket assembly 2, increasing the installation stability of the clothing processing equipment 100.
[0116] Please see Figure 1 The first rod 4 is part of the hanging rod 6.
[0117] In this embodiment, the first connecting end 313 is connected to the hanging rod 6 via the first rod 4. There is sufficient installation space between the bucket assembly 2 and the hanging rod 6 to arrange the vibration damping component 3. The hanging rod 6 has sufficient structural strength to provide sufficient motion support for the vibration damping component 3. The end of the vibration damping component 3 connected to the hanging rod 6 will not detach from the hanging rod 6, increasing the installation stability of the vibration damping component 3. In addition, the end of the first moving part 31 away from the rotating connection is not directly connected to the housing 1. The vibration energy of the bucket assembly 2 is transmitted to the housing 1 via the vibration damping component 3 and the hanging rod 6, which can reduce the vibration energy received by the housing 1 and increase the operational stability of the clothing processing equipment 100.
[0118] Of course, the first rod 4 can also be connected to the hanger 6. The hanger 6 can provide support for the first rod 4, thereby providing sufficient support for the first connecting end 313.
[0119] Understandably, the boom 6 can also be equipped with a vibration damping structure to buffer the vibration of the bucket assembly 2. For example, please refer to... Figure 1 The garment processing equipment 100 includes a damping cylinder 63, a base support 64 disposed at the bottom end of the hanging rod 6, and a vibration damping spring 62. The vibration damping spring 62 passes through the hanging rod 6 and is clamped between the damping cylinder 63 and the base support 64. A connecting groove 2a is formed on the outer peripheral wall of the bottom end of the tub assembly 2, and the connecting groove 2a is sleeved on the damping cylinder 63. Specifically, the damping cylinder 63 is sleeved on the hanging rod 6, and the vibration damping spring 62 is a compression spring. One end of the vibration damping spring 62 abuts against the bottom end of the damping cylinder 63, and the other end abuts against the base support 64. In this way, when the tub assembly 2 vibrates during washing or spin-drying, the vibration damping spring 62 slides up and down along the hanging rod 6 to absorb the longitudinal vibration energy of the tub assembly 2, thereby reducing the vibration noise of the cabinet 1 and increasing the operational stability of the garment processing equipment 100.
[0120] The number of vibration damping components 3 is unlimited; for example, please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 2 There are four vibration damping components 3. One end of each vibration damping component 3 is connected to the bucket assembly 2, and the other end is connected to the hanging rod 6. Thus, the vibration damping components 3 can evenly and fully buffer the vibration of the bucket assembly 2 from different directions, increase the vibration damping effect, and improve the operational safety of the clothing processing equipment 100.
[0121] The first connecting end 313 is connected to the housing 1 via the first rod 4. Alternatively, in some embodiments, please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 10 The garment processing equipment 100 includes a workbench 9, which is located at the top of the housing 1. One end of the first rod 4 is connected to the workbench 9, and the other end extends downward from the workbench 9 to form a suspended free end, or extends downward and connects to the lower part or bottom plate of the housing 1. This achieves the connection between the first rod 4 and the housing 1.
[0122] It is understandable that the workbench 9 is located on the top side of the housing 1. The workbench 9 has a clothing inlet that communicates with the clothing processing chamber. In other words, the clothes to be washed can be put into the clothing processing chamber from the top side through the clothing inlet, and the washed clothes can also be taken out of the clothing processing chamber through the clothing inlet.
[0123] In this embodiment, one end of the vibration damping component 3 is connected to the bucket component 2, and the other end is connected to the workbench 9 through the first rod 4. The bucket component 2 and the workbench 9 together provide installation support for the vibration damping component 3 to increase the installation stability and motion stability of the vibration damping component 3. Furthermore, the end of the first moving part 31 away from the rotating connection is not directly connected to the box 1. The vibration energy of the bucket component 2 is transmitted to the box 1 through the vibration damping component 3 and the workbench 9. The workbench 9 can share some of the vibration energy of the box 1, which can reduce the vibration noise of the box 1 and increase the operational stability of the clothing processing equipment 100.
[0124] In addition, the first rod 4 extends downward from the worktable 9, and the axis of the first rod 4 is along the height direction, which helps to reduce the motion resistance of the first connecting end 313.
[0125] The first connecting end 313 is connected to the housing 1 via the first rod 4. Alternatively, in some embodiments, the clothing processing device 100 includes the housing 1 and a mounting base 11, with the mounting base 11 disposed on the housing 1 and at least one end of the first rod 4 disposed on the mounting base 11. This achieves the connection between the first rod 4 and the housing 1.
[0126] In this embodiment, one end of the vibration damping component 3 is connected to the barrel component 2, and the other end is connected to the box 1 through the first rod 4, so that the vibration damping component 3 is connected to the barrel component 2 and the box 1 respectively. The barrel component 2 and the box 1 together provide support for the vibration damping component 3. In this way, the vibration damping component 3 has sufficient installation space and movement space, which is convenient for buffering the vibration of the barrel component 2.
[0127] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 9 Along the axial direction of the through hole 313a, the hole wall of the through hole 313a extends toward the axis E of the through hole 313a from the two opposite ends of the through hole 313a.
[0128] Specifically, from the two opposite ends of the through hole 313a along its axial direction toward the middle position of the through hole 313a along its axial direction, the diameter of the through hole 313a gradually decreases. The diameter of the through hole 313a at the middle position of the axial direction is smaller than the diameter of the through hole 313a at both ends of the axial direction. The diameter of the through hole 313a is roughly distributed with larger diameters at both ends and smaller diameters in the middle.
[0129] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the structure of the through hole 313a allows the first connecting end 313 to rotate around the circumference of the first rod 4 and slide along the extension direction of the first rod 4, while also allowing the first connecting end 313 to swing up and down relative to the first rod 4.
[0130] In this embodiment, the vibration damping component 3 has at least three degrees of freedom of motion, and its motion is highly smooth, which makes it easy to buffer the vibration of the barrel component 2 and reduce the probability of the barrel component 2 hitting the box body 1.
[0131] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 The garment processing device 100 includes a second rod 5 connected to the outer circumferential side of the tub assembly 2. The second moving part 32 includes a second connecting end 323 with a through hole 323a. The side wall of the second rod 5 has a deformation groove that allows the second rod 5 to contract at least partially inward so that the second rod 5 passes through the through hole 323a. The second connecting end 323 can rotate around the circumference of the second rod 5.
[0132] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 The bucket assembly 2 includes at least two mounting blocks 21 protruding from the outer circumferential wall of the bucket assembly 2. The two mounting blocks 21 are spaced apart along the height direction. The two ends of the second rod 5 are fixed to the mounting blocks 21. The second connecting end 323 is sleeved on the part of the second rod 5 located between the two mounting blocks 21 and abuts against the two mounting blocks 21 respectively.
[0133] In this way, on the one hand, the stability of the second rod 5 fixed to the barrel assembly 2 can be increased, and the probability of the second rod 5 coming off the barrel assembly 2 can be reduced. In addition, the probability of the second connecting end 323 coming off the second rod 5 can also be reduced. On the other hand, the two mounting blocks 21 constrain the sliding freedom of the second connecting end 323 along the extension direction of the second rod 5, so that the second connecting end 323 only has the motion freedom of circumferential rotation around the second rod 5.
[0134] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 6 The garment processing device 100 includes a bushing 7, which is disposed in a through hole 323a, and a second rod 5 passes through the bushing 7 and contacts the bushing 7.
[0135] In this embodiment, the bushing 7 serves two purposes: firstly, it facilitates the firm insertion of the second rod 5 into the through hole 323a; secondly, when the second rod 5 contacts the bushing 7 and the second connecting end 323 rotates around the second rod 5, the inner wall of the through hole 323a does not directly contact or rub against the second rod 5, reducing the probability of damage to the vibration damping assembly 3 while also further reducing the generation of impact noise.
[0136] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 6 The garment processing equipment 100 also includes a vibration damping sleeve 8, with a bushing 7 inserted inside the vibration damping sleeve 8, and the outer periphery of the vibration damping sleeve 8 contacting the wall of the through hole 323a.
[0137] It is understandable that the bushing 7 can be made of metal. The bushing 7 is set in the through hole 323a, and the second rod 5 passes through the through hole 323a. When the second connecting end 323 rotates around the second rod 5, the friction with the bushing 7 will also damage the vibration damping component 3.
[0138] In this embodiment, the damping sleeve 8 can isolate the through hole 323a from the bushing 7, reducing the contact wear between the inner wall of the through hole 323a and the bushing 7. In addition, the damping sleeve 8 can also play a buffering and damping role, further reducing the probability of noise generation.
[0139] The damping sleeve 8 can be made of plastic or rubber. When the bushing 7 and the second rod 5 are inserted into the through hole 323a, the damping sleeve 8 can undergo appropriate deformation, and the damping sleeve 8 is in close contact with the inner wall of the through hole 323a, the bushing 7 is in close contact with the damping sleeve 8, and the second rod 5 is in close contact with the bushing 7, thereby achieving a stable fit between the second rod 5 and the through hole 323a.
[0140] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 6 The bushing 7 has a second deformation groove 7a on its side wall. The second deformation groove 7a passes through the opposite ends of the side wall of the bushing 7 along the axial direction, so that the bushing 7 can generate radial elastic deformation.
[0141] In this embodiment, the second deformation groove 7a is provided so that the bushing 7 can undergo radial elastic deformation to press the damping sleeve 8 tightly. The second rod 5 then contracts inward under the action of the first deformation groove 5a to fit with the bushing 7. In this way, when the second connecting end 323 adapts to the vibration displacement of the barrel assembly 2 by rotation, it can generate almost no impact noise or generate very little impact noise.
[0142] The following combination Figures 1 to 11 The movement mode of the vibration damping component 3 according to an embodiment of this application will be briefly described.
[0143] There are four vibration damping components 3 and four hangers 6. The four vibration damping components 3 are centrally symmetrically distributed with respect to the center line of the barrel component 2.
[0144] The first rod 4 is part of the lifting rod 6, the first connecting end 313 is part of the first moving part 31, and the lifting rod 6 passes through the through hole 313a. Furthermore, the four through slots 313b are all oriented towards the corresponding through hole 313a on the same side of the circumference of the barrel assembly 2.
[0145] The first connecting end 313 is provided with a through hole 313a and a through groove 313b that are interconnected. The first connecting end 313 can rotate around the circumference of the rod 6, slide along the extension direction of the rod 6, and swing up and down relative to the rod 6. The through hole 313a and the through groove 313b can provide elastic deformation.
[0146] The second moving part 32 includes a second connecting end 323, which is the end of the second moving part 32 away from the first moving part 31. The second connecting end 323 has a through hole 323a, and the second rod 5 passes through the through hole 323a. The second rod 5 is hollow and has a first deformation groove 5a. The bushing 7 has a second deformation groove 7a. The second rod 5 is stably engaged with the through hole 323a through the damping sleeve 8 and the bushing 7. The second moving part 32 can rotate around the circumference of the second rod 5.
[0147] The first moving part 31 and the second moving part 32 can rotate relative to each other about their connection point.
[0148] In this embodiment, the vibration damping component 3 has five degrees of freedom of motion: rotational degree of freedom to rotate around the first rod 4, sliding degree of freedom to slide along the extension direction of the first rod 4, degree of freedom to swing up and down relative to the first rod 4, degree of freedom to rotate around the second rod 5, and degree of freedom of relative rotation of the first moving part 31 and the second moving part 32. The vibration damping component 3 has a low probability of motion jamming and can adapt to the vibration displacement of the barrel component 2 in different vibration directions.
[0149] In this embodiment, the openings of the first included angle α of all vibration damping components 3 are oriented towards the dehydration rotation direction of the bucket assembly 2. This helps to reduce the vibration amplitude of the bucket assembly 2, thereby reducing the vibration amplitude transmitted from the bucket assembly 2 to the housing 1.
