[0030] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 An embodiment of the present application provides a clothing processing device, which includes a drum assembly 10, an air duct assembly 20, a wind wheel assembly and a detection device.

[0031] Please continue reading Figure 1 and Figure 2 The drum assembly 10 is formed with a clothing processing chamber 10a and an air port 10b connected to the clothing processing chamber 10a. The air duct assembly 20 is connected to the air port 10b. The wind wheel assembly is arranged in the air duct assembly 20. The detection end 30 of the detection device extends into the air duct assembly 20 and is located between the wind wheel assembly and the air port 10b. Specifically, the air duct assembly 20 is located outside the drum assembly 10.

[0032] The laundry processing chamber 10a is used for placing and processing laundry. The laundry processing methods include but are not limited to washing and / or drying the laundry and the like.

[0033] The wind wheel assembly is used to drive the airflow. The air port 10b can be an air inlet or an air outlet. Taking the air port 10b as the air inlet as an example, the wind wheel assembly can drive the airflow through the air port 10b into the clothing processing chamber 10a. The airflow can be used to dry the clothes in the clothing processing chamber 10a.

[0034] The detection end 30 of the detection device is used to detect foam and / or water and generate a trigger signal.

[0035] The source of the foam is not limited, and the source of the foam can be the foam generated during the washing process, or the foam generated under other circumstances; the source of the water is not limited, and the source of the water can be the water generated during the washing process, or the water generated under other circumstances.

[0036] The clothing processing device provided in the embodiment of the present application is explained by taking the detection of foam as an example. Water and foam are the same situation. If foam and / or water are generated in the process of processing clothes, the foam and / or water in the clothing processing chamber 10a may enter the air duct assembly 20 through the air outlet 10b. The detection end 30 of the detection device is located between the wind wheel assembly and the air outlet 10b. The foam and / or water from the air outlet 10b first triggers the detection end 30, and the detection end 30 generates a trigger signal. The clothing processing device can be controlled according to the trigger signal to reduce foam or avoid the entry of water, thereby avoiding further increase of foam and / or water in the air duct assembly 20, causing the wind wheel assembly to contact the foam and / or water, and reducing the risk of related devices such as the wind wheel assembly contacting foam and / or water.

[0037] The clothes processing equipment of the embodiments of the present application includes but is not limited to washing machines, clothes dryers or integrated washing and drying machines, etc. A washing machine refers to a clothes processing equipment with a washing function. A clothes dryer refers to a clothes processing equipment with a drying function. An integrated washing and drying machine refers to a clothes processing equipment that integrates washing and drying functions.

[0038] It should be understood that washing includes any of cleaning and dehydrating.

[0039] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The drum assembly 10 includes an outer barrel 11, an inner barrel 12 having a clothing processing chamber 10a, and a door sealing ring 13. The inner barrel 12 is rotatably arranged in the outer barrel 11. Both the outer barrel 11 and the inner barrel 12 are open to the front. The door sealing ring 13 surrounds the front opening of the outer barrel 11, and the door sealing ring 13 is formed with an air outlet 10b.

[0040] In this embodiment, the rotation axis of the inner drum 12 extends in the front-to-back direction, and the clothes processing device is also called a drum-type clothes processing device. The user can put clothes into or take out the clothes processing chamber 10a from the front openings of the outer drum 11 and the inner drum 12. The outer drum 11 and the door seal ring 13 are both kept stationary, and the air port 10b is formed on the door seal ring 13, so that the air port 10b is connected to the air duct assembly 20, reducing the difficulty of assembly.

[0041] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the air duct assembly 20 and the detection device are both fixed on the outer barrel 11. The outer barrel 11 remains stationary to facilitate the assembly of the air duct assembly 20 and the detection device.

[0042] In some embodiments, the inner barrel 12 and the outer barrel 11 are both substantially cylindrical.

[0043] In one embodiment, please refer to Figures 1 to 3 , the air vent 10b is located at the upper part of the drum assembly 10. For example, the air vent 10b is located at the upper part of the door seal ring 13. In this way, the position of the air vent 10b is relatively high, and the foam in the laundry processing chamber 10a needs to reach the height of the air vent 10b to enter the air duct assembly 20 through the air vent 10b. By raising the height of the air vent 10b, the risk of foam entering the air duct assembly 20 through the air vent 10b can be further reduced.

[0044] Please note that Figure 2 and Figure 3 , in a vertical plane perpendicular to the rotation axis of the barrel assembly 10 extending in the front-to-back direction, the barrel assembly 10 has a first median perpendicular line L1 and a second median perpendicular line L2, the rotation axis, the first median perpendicular line L1, and the second median perpendicular line L2 are perpendicular to each other and intersect, the first median perpendicular line L1 extends in the left-right direction, and the second median perpendicular line L2 extends in the up-down direction, and the upper part of the barrel assembly 10 refers to: the barrel assembly 10 is located above the first median perpendicular line L1. For example, the outer barrel 11 is located above the first median perpendicular line L1. For another example, the door seal 13 is located above the first median perpendicular line L1. The lower part of the barrel assembly 10 refers to: the barrel assembly 10 is located below the first median perpendicular line L1. For example, the outer barrel 11 is located below the first median perpendicular line L1. For another example, the door seal 13 is located below the first median perpendicular line L1. The left side of the barrel assembly 10 refers to: the barrel assembly 10 is located to the left of the second median perpendicular line L2. The right side of the barrel assembly 10 refers to the portion of the barrel assembly 10 located on the right side of the second perpendicular midline L2.

[0045] For example, in one embodiment, please refer to Figure 3 , the air port 10b is located at the upper right part of the barrel assembly 10. That is, the air port 10b is located above the first perpendicular midline L1 and to the right of the second perpendicular midline L2.

[0046] The detection device detects foam and / or water in any manner. For example, the detection end 30 may contact foam and / or water and generate a trigger signal.

[0047] In one embodiment, please refer to Figures 1 to 3 The detection device includes two detection ends 30 , which are respectively defined as a first detection end 31 and a second detection end 32 , and the height of the first detection end 31 is higher than the height of the second detection end 32 .

[0048] In this embodiment, the first detection end 31 and the second detection end 32 both contact the foam to form a detection loop. That is to say, when the first detection end 31 and the second detection end 32 both contact the foam, a trigger signal is generated. Exemplarily, since the height of the first detection end 31 is higher than the height of the second detection end 32, during the rising process of the foam in the air duct assembly 20, the foam first contacts the second detection end 32. If the foam increases further, the foam continues to rise. When the foam contacts the first detection end 31, the first detection end 31 and the second detection end 32 form a detection loop and generate a trigger signal. The trigger signal can be used as a basis for judging that there is too much foam. The clothing processing device can control the foam according to the trigger signal to prevent the foam from increasing further. The judgment reliability of the first detection end 31 and the second detection end 32 is high, which effectively improves the accuracy of judging the rising position of the foam.

[0049] In some other embodiments, there may be only one detection end 30. That is, a trigger signal is generated when a single detection end 30 contacts the foam.

[0050] In one embodiment, please refer to Figures 1 to 3 , the first detection end 31 is not lower than the highest point of the barrel assembly 10. In other words, the first detection end 31 is higher than or flush with the highest point of the barrel assembly 10. Taking the barrel assembly 10 including the inner barrel 12 and the outer barrel 11 as an example, the first detection end 31 may not be lower than the highest point of the outer barrel 11. With such a design, when there is a lot of foam in the clothing processing chamber 10a, for example, when the height of the foam reaches the top of the clothing processing chamber 10a, the foam may contact the first detection end 31 to generate a trigger signal, thus reducing the probability of false touch.

[0051] In one embodiment, please refer to Figures 1 to 3, the second detection end 32 is not higher than the highest point of the barrel assembly 10. In other words, the second detection end 32 is lower than or flush with the highest point of the barrel assembly 10. Taking the barrel assembly 10 including the inner barrel 12 and the outer barrel 11 as an example, the second detection end 32 may not be higher than the highest point of the outer barrel 11. With such a design, it is possible to avoid the second detection end 32 being too high, and the foam in the clothing processing chamber 10a will not contact the second detection end 32 until the foam exceeds the top of the clothing processing chamber 10a, resulting in the risk of low reliability caused by the trigger signal being generated too late.

[0052] In one embodiment, please refer to Figures 1 to 3 The air duct assembly 20 includes a volute 21 connected to the air port 10b, and the wind wheel assembly and the detection end 30 are both located in the volute 21. In this embodiment, the wind wheel assembly can be a centrifugal wind wheel assembly. The volute tongue 211 is a tongue-shaped structure at the air flow outlet of the volute 21. The volute tongue 211 is located between the detection end 30 and the wind wheel assembly.

[0053] In one embodiment, please refer to Figures 1 to 3 In the height direction, the detection end 30 is located no higher than the lowest point of the volute tongue 211 of the volute 21. Exemplarily, the first detection end 31 is no higher than the height of the volute tongue 211. Since the second detection end 32 is lower than the first detection end 31, the second detection end 32 is also no higher than the height of the volute tongue 211.

[0054] In this embodiment, the detection end 30 is located no higher than the lowest point of the volute tongue 211 of the volute 21. The foam from the air outlet 10b needs to climb upward to the volute tongue 211 and then cross the volute tongue 211 before entering the wind wheel assembly. The height of the detection end 30 is no higher than the height of the volute tongue 211 of the volute 21. In this way, before the foam climbs to the volute tongue 211, the detection end 30 can already detect the foam and generate a trigger signal, thereby improving reliability.

[0055] In one embodiment, please refer to Figures 1 to 3 The volute 21 is located at the upper part of the cylinder assembly 10. In this way, the position of the volute 21 is relatively high, and the foam needs to climb a higher height to enter the volute 21. By raising the height of the volute 21, the risk of foam entering the volute 21 can be further reduced.

[0056] In one embodiment, please refer to Figures 1 to 3 In the height direction, the distance between the detection end 30 and the air port 10b is less than the distance between the detection end 30 and the volute tongue 211 of the volute 21. The detection end 30 is relatively close to the air port 10b, and the foam from the air port 10b can be detected more quickly to perform the defoaming operation.

[0057] It can be understood that the height direction coincides with the up-down direction.

[0058] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 to Figure 2 The detection device includes at least two mounting ends 50, and the mounting ends 50 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence with the detection ends 30, and the two mounting ends 50 are arranged on different surfaces of the volute 21. The different surfaces of the volute 21 refer to two surfaces of the volute 21 facing in different directions. For example, the two mounting ends 50 can be respectively arranged on the front side and the right side of the volute 21. For another example, the two mounting ends 50 can be respectively arranged on the front side and the left side of the volute 21. With such a design, the distance between the two mounting ends 50 is relatively far, so that the two detection ends 30 are separated as much as possible, thereby improving the detection accuracy.

[0059] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 to Figure 2 The detection device includes at least two mounting ends 50, and the mounting ends 50 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence with the detection ends 30. The volute 21 includes a volute body 212 and a wind wheel flange 213. One mounting end 50 is located at the volute body 212, and the other mounting end 50 is located at the wind wheel flange 213. In this design, the two detection ends 30 are respectively mounted to the volute body 212 and the wind wheel flange 213 through the two mounting ends 50, thereby improving the detection accuracy.

[0060] The wind wheel and a motor for driving the wind wheel to rotate may be connected to the wind wheel flange 213 .

[0061] The volute body 212 and the wind rotor flange 213 may be independent structures, that is, the volute body 212 and the wind rotor flange 213 may be manufactured separately and then assembled. The volute body 212 and the wind rotor flange 213 may be detachably connected or non-detachably connected. The detachable connection includes but is not limited to a snap connection, a screw connection, or a bolt connection, etc.

[0062] In one embodiment, please refer to Figures 1 to 5 The clothing processing device includes a heat exchange component 40, which is disposed in the air duct component 20 and is located on a side of the wind wheel component away from the detection end 30. The heat exchange component 40 is used to exchange heat with the airflow to change the temperature and humidity of the airflow. The heat exchange component 40 and the wind wheel component provide a drying function.

[0063] In this embodiment, the heat exchange component 40 is located upstream of the wind wheel component along the airflow direction in the air duct component 20, and the detection end 30 is located downstream of the wind wheel component along the airflow direction in the air duct component 20. The heat exchange component 40 is located on the side of the wind wheel component away from the detection end 30, and the heat exchange component 40 is far away from the air outlet 10b. Even if foam enters the air duct component 20, it needs to pass through the detection end 30 and the wind wheel component in sequence to reach the location of the heat exchange component 40. Such a design can reduce the risk of the heat exchange component 40 contacting the foam.

[0064] In one embodiment, the height of the heat exchange component 40 is higher than the height of the detection end 30 .

[0065] Exemplarily, the height of the heat exchange component 40 is higher than the height of the first detection end 31 . Since the second detection end 32 is lower than the first detection end 31 , the height of the heat exchange component 40 is higher than the height of the second detection end 32 .

[0066] In this embodiment, the height of the heat exchange component 40 is higher than the height of the detection end 30, which means that the foam needs to climb to a height exceeding the detection end 30 before it is possible to contact the heat exchange component 40. By increasing the height of the heat exchange component 40, the risk of foam contacting the heat exchange component 40 can be further reduced, thereby avoiding foam damage to the heat exchange component 40 and increasing the service life of the heat exchange component 40.

[0067] In one embodiment, please refer to Figures 1 to 5 , the heat exchange component 40 is located on the top side of the barrel component 10. In other words, the heat exchange component 40 is located above the barrel component 10.

[0068] In one embodiment, the wind wheel assembly is located on the left or right side of the heat exchange assembly 40, and the detection end 30 is located on the front side of the wind wheel assembly. Such a design makes the overall structure of the clothing processing device compact, the layout reasonable and space-saving.

[0069] In one embodiment, please refer to Figures 1 to 3 The air duct assembly 20 includes a heat exchange shell 22, which is located on the top side of the barrel assembly 10, such as the outer barrel 11, and the heat exchange assembly 40 is located in the heat exchange shell 22. At least part of the volute 21 is connected to one side of the heat exchange shell 22 in the left-right direction. Such a design can prevent the volute 21 and the heat exchange shell 22 from occupying too large a size in the vertical direction.

[0070] In one embodiment, please refer to Figures 1 to 4 The air port 10b is an air inlet, an air outlet 10c is formed on the upper part of the drum assembly 10, and the air duct assembly 20 is connected to the air outlet 10c. The wind wheel assembly drives the air flow in the clothing processing chamber 10a to enter the air duct assembly 20 through the air outlet 10c, and then flows through the heat exchange assembly 40 and the wind wheel assembly, and then flows back to the clothing processing chamber 10a through the air port 10b. In this way, the clothes in the clothing processing chamber 10a are dried by the circulation of the air flow.

[0071] In this embodiment, the air outlet 10c is formed at the upper part of the barrel assembly 10, and the position of the air outlet 10c is relatively high. The foam in the clothing processing chamber 10a needs to reach the height of the air outlet 10c before it can enter the air duct assembly 20 through the air outlet 10c. By raising the height of the air outlet 10c, the risk of foam entering the air duct assembly 20 through the air outlet 10c can be further reduced.

[0072] In one embodiment, please refer to Figures 1 to 4The air outlet 10c is formed on the circumferential surface of the outer tub 11. With such a design, the air duct assembly 20 may not extend to the rear side of the outer tub 11, thereby preventing the air duct assembly 20 from increasing the size of the laundry processing apparatus in the front-to-back direction.

[0073] In some embodiments, the heat exchange assembly 40 includes a condenser and an evaporator. The evaporator is used to cool and dehumidify the hot and humid airflow from the clothing processing chamber 10a to form a dry and cold airflow. The condenser heats the dry and cold airflow into a dry and hot airflow. In other words, the clothing processing device adopts a heat pump drying function.

[0074] In some embodiments, the clothing processing device further includes a compressor and a throttling device. The compressor, condenser, throttling device and evaporator are connected in series in sequence through pipelines to form a heat pump system, and the refrigerant can circulate in the heat pump system.

[0075] The working principle of the heat pump system is as follows: the compressor sucks in low-pressure gaseous refrigerant and compresses it into high pressure and discharges it; the discharged high-pressure refrigerant enters the condenser, and the refrigerant in the condenser transfers heat to the airflow to condense into high-pressure liquid; the high-pressure liquid refrigerant flows through the throttling device and becomes a low-pressure and low-temperature gas-liquid two-phase mixture and enters the evaporator after throttling and reducing pressure; the refrigerant in the evaporator absorbs the heat of the airflow and becomes a low-pressure gas; the low-pressure gaseous refrigerant is sucked in by the compressor again; and the cycle is repeated to achieve heat exchange. In other words, the evaporator is used to cool and dehumidify the humid hot airflow from the clothing processing chamber 10a to form a dry cold airflow, and the condenser heats the dry cold airflow into a dry hot airflow and then flows back into the clothing processing chamber 10a. The dry hot airflow flowing back to the clothing processing chamber 10a contacts the wet clothes to form a humid hot airflow again, completing a drying cycle. By repeatedly running the drying cycle, the circulating airflow is continuously provided to the clothing processing chamber 10a to dry the clothes.

[0076] In one embodiment, the clothes processing device comprises a box, and the drum assembly 10, the air duct assembly 20 and the detection device are all located in the box. The front side plate of the box may be formed with a clothes delivery port, and the clothes delivery port is communicated with the clothes processing chamber 10a.

[0077] Exemplarily, the door seal 13 can connect the outer barrel 11 and the box body to close the gap between the outer barrel 11 and the box body. The door seal 13 can be a flexible structure. Exemplarily, the door seal 13 can be made of rubber or silicone material.

[0078] Exemplarily, the box is roughly in the shape of a hexahedron, for example, the box is roughly in the shape of a cube or a cuboid.
