[0031] The present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0032] See also Figures 1 to 4 In the first aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides a heat pump component, which has a drying tunnel, and the drying tunnel has an air inlet 10a, an air outlet 10c and a heat exchange component installation area 10b. The circulating air enters the drying tunnel through the air inlet 10a, and enters the heat exchange component installation area 10b through the air outlet 10c; wherein, a partition wall 11 is provided in the drying tunnel, and at least part of the side wall of the partition wall 11 along the first direction constitutes part of the side wall of the air inlet 10a, and the end wall of one end of the partition wall along the second direction constitutes part of the side wall of the air outlet 10c. In the second direction, the ratio of the effective length of the air inlet 10a to the effective length of the air outlet 10c is 1 / 7 to 1 / 10, and the first direction intersects with the second direction.

[0033] A heat pump assembly is used in a laundry treatment appliance.

[0034] In a second aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides a clothing processing device, comprising a drum assembly and a heat pump assembly according to any one of the embodiments of the present application.

[0035] The drum assembly has a clothes drying chamber, the heat pump assembly is arranged on the drum assembly, and the clothes drying chamber is communicated with the air inlet 10a.

[0036] The specific type of clothing processing equipment is not limited here. In addition to drying clothing, the clothing processing equipment can also perform at least one of washing, dehydrating, and other operations on clothing. For example, it can be a dryer or a washer-dryer. Exemplarily, the embodiment of the present application is described by taking the clothing processing equipment as a washer-dryer as an example.

[0037] The washer-dryer can wash and dry clothes. The drum assembly of the washer-dryer includes a clothes drying drum, and the inside of the clothes drying drum is formed with a clothes drying cavity for accommodating clothes and a clothes loading port, and users can take and put clothes from the clothes loading port.

[0038] The heat pump assembly generally includes components such as an evaporator 31, a condenser 32, a throttling element, a compressor, etc. In other words, the clothes processing device of the embodiment of the present application uses heat pump technology to dry clothes.

[0039] The working principle of the heat pump assembly is as follows: the compressor inhales low-pressure gaseous refrigerant, which is compressed by the compressor and discharged at high pressure. The discharged high-pressure gaseous refrigerant enters the condenser 32, is cooled by the air at room temperature, and condenses into a high-pressure liquid (while transferring heat to the surrounding air). In other words, the air around the condenser 32 will be heated and heated up; the high-pressure liquid refrigerant flows through the throttling element to throttle and reduce pressure, and then becomes a low-pressure and low-temperature gas-liquid two-phase mixture and enters the evaporator 31. The liquid refrigerant therein evaporates and cools in the evaporator 31 (while absorbing heat from the surrounding air). In other words, the air around the evaporator 31 will be cooled and cooled down, and the generated low-pressure gaseous refrigerant will be sucked in by the compressor again and pressurized. This cycle repeats itself continuously to achieve heat exchange.

[0040] It should be noted that the type of the throttling element is not limited, and may be, for example, a capillary tube, an electronic expansion valve, and the like.

[0041] The working process and drying principle of the clothing treatment device of the embodiment of the present application are as follows: the dry hot air flow flowing out of the heat pump component enters the drying chamber, in the drying chamber, the dry hot air flow flows through the surface of the wet clothes, exchanges heat and moisture with the wet clothes, absorbs moisture in the clothes, and becomes a humid hot air flow, the humid hot air flow passes through the air flow path and flows through the evaporator 31 and the condenser 32 in sequence, in the process of flowing through the evaporator 31, the humid hot air flow is condensed and dehumidified by the evaporator 31 to form a low-temperature dry air flow, and the low-temperature dry air flow is heated to a dry hot air flow when passing through the condenser 32. The dry hot air flow enters the drying chamber again, and the cycle runs in this way to achieve continuous and efficient drying of clothes.

[0042] The heat pump washer-dryer achieves high energy utilization and low energy consumption. At the same time, the drying temperature of the heat pump component is much lower than the heating temperature of the electric heating element, ensuring the drying quality of clothes.

[0043] The heat pump assembly generally includes a drying tunnel bottom cover 10 and a drying tunnel top cover, and the drying tunnel bottom cover 10 and the drying tunnel top cover together define a drying tunnel. Specifically, Figures 1 to 4 , the specific structure of the drying tunnel bottom cover is shown, and the drying tunnel top cover can be covered on the drying tunnel bottom cover 10, so as to define a drying tunnel together with the drying tunnel bottom cover 10.

[0044] The specific direction of the first direction is not limited. For example, the first direction is Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 The direction shown by d1.

[0045] The specific direction of the second direction is not limited. For example, the second direction is Figures 1 to 4 The direction shown by d2.

[0046] At least part of the side wall of the partition wall 11 constitutes part of the side wall of the air inlet 10a. Figure 1 and Figure 4 , that is, the partition wall 11 needs to meet the extension dimension of the air inlet 10a in the second direction.

[0047] The end wall of the partition wall 11 along the second direction constitutes a part of the side wall of the air outlet 10c. Figure 4 It can be understood that, under the condition that the size of the oven bottom cover 10 along the second direction is constant, the size of the air inlet 10a and the size of the air outlet 10c affect each other.

[0048] The heat exchange assembly installation area 10b is used to install the heat exchange assembly 30. The heat exchange assembly 30 includes the evaporator 31 and the condenser 32 mentioned above.

[0049] The effective length of the air inlet 10a refers to the wind-passing dimension of the air inlet 10a in the second direction. Figure 2 As shown, when the air inlet 10a is circular, its effective length is the diameter 2R of the circular air inlet.

[0050] The effective length of the air outlet 10c refers to the air flow dimension of the air outlet 10c in the second direction. Figure 2 As shown in L.

[0051] The ratio of 2R to L is 1 / 7 to 1 / 10, for example, 1 / 7, 2 / 15, 1 / 8, 2 / 17, 1 / 9, 2 / 19, 1 / 10, etc.

[0052] In the related art, when the effective length of the air inlet is smaller than the effective length of the air outlet, the air inlet is too small and the air outlet is too large, so the airflow in the clothes drying chamber cannot smoothly pass through the air inlet into the drying tunnel; when the effective length of the air inlet is larger than the effective length of the air outlet, and the overall size of the heat pump component is limited, the size of the air inlet is too large and the size of the air outlet is small, and after the circulating air enters the drying tunnel through the air inlet, it cannot smoothly flow through the air outlet to the heat exchange component installation area. Therefore, the circulating air is blocked, which in turn affects the drying performance of the clothes processing equipment.

[0053] The heat pump assembly of the embodiment of the present application controls the ratio of the effective length of the air inlet 10a to the effective length of the air outlet 10c within the range of 1 / 7 to 1 / 10. When the size of the heat pump assembly is limited, the air inlet 10a and the air outlet 10c can fully utilize the size of the heat pump assembly in the second direction. At the same time, the sizes of the air inlet 10a and the air outlet 10c can be controlled within a relatively reasonable range. The airflow in the drying chamber of the clothing processing equipment can enter the drying tunnel through the air inlet 10a relatively smoothly, and in the process of flowing in the drying tunnel, it can also enter the heat exchange assembly installation area 10b relatively smoothly through the air outlet 10c. This is conducive to improving the circulation efficiency of the circulating air, thereby improving the drying performance of the clothing processing equipment.

[0054] It should be noted that the shapes of the air inlet 10a and the air outlet 10c are not limited. Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, in one embodiment, the air inlet 10a is circular and the air outlet 10c is rectangular.

[0055] Specifically, the air inlet 10a and the clothes drying chamber are usually connected by a connecting pipe, which is generally a circular structure. The outer wall of the circular air inlet 10a is also conveniently designed to be circular, so that it is convenient to connect the connecting pipe. In addition, the circular shape cooperates with the circular shape, and the sealing performance is better, which is conducive to improving the air tightness during the airflow circulation process.

[0056] It is understandable that clothing processing equipment generally has a large size restriction in the height direction. For example, a washing and drying machine includes a washing drum and a drying drum, which need to be stacked in the height direction. In order to facilitate user use, the overall height of the washing and drying machine cannot be too high, thus placing a large size restriction in the height direction.

[0057] That is to say, the heat pump assembly is also susceptible to size limitations in the height direction, and by setting the air outlet 10c to a rectangle, the extension direction of the narrow side dimension of the air outlet 10c can be set to be parallel to the height direction of the heat pump assembly. In this way, the area of ​​the air outlet 10c can be adjusted by changing the long side dimension of the air outlet 10c.

[0058] In some other embodiments, the air inlet 10a may also be in other shapes besides a circle, such as a polygon, or an irregular shape.

[0059] See also Figure 2 In one embodiment, the radius of the air inlet 10a is not less than 45 mm and not more than 55 mm, for example, 45 mm, 46 mm, 47 mm, 48 mm, 49 mm, 50 mm, 51 mm, 52 mm, 53 mm, 54 mm, 55 mm, etc.

[0060] It should be noted that in the embodiments of the present application, the unit referred to by “mm” is millimeter.

[0061] According to the above, after the radius size of the air inlet 10a is determined, the range of the long side size and the range of the narrow side size of the air outlet 10c can be obtained. In this way, based on the restriction conditions of the specific size in the height direction of the clothing processing equipment, the specific long side size value and narrow side size value of the air outlet 10c can be reasonably selected.

[0062] See also Figure 2 In one embodiment, the radius of the air inlet 10a is not less than 48 mm and not more than 50 mm, for example, 48 mm, 48.2 mm, 48.4 mm, 48.6 mm, 48.8 mm, 49 mm, 49.2 mm, 49.4 mm, 49.6 mm, 49.8 mm, 50 mm, etc.

[0063] In this embodiment, the radius size range of the air inlet 10a is more appropriate.

[0064] See also Figures 1 to 3 In one embodiment, the heat pump assembly includes a filter box 20, and the drying tunnel also has a filter box installation area 10d. The filter box 20 is detachably arranged in the filter box installation area 10d. The circulating air enters the filter box 20 through the air inlet 10a, flows through the filter box 20, and then enters the heat exchange assembly installation area 10d through the air outlet 10c.

[0065] The heat pump assembly further includes a filter (not shown), and the filter box 20 has a filter installation area 20b, and the filter is arranged in the filter installation area 20b.

[0066] There is no restriction on the shape and size of the filter installation area 20b, which only needs to provide installation space for the filter and be able to accommodate the installation of the filter.

[0067] The filter can be used to filter the hair in the circulating airflow. It can be replaceably arranged in the filter installation area 20b. That is, when a lot of hair remains on the filter, the filter can be taken out from the filter installation area 20b and replaced with a new filter; of course, the original filter can also be cleaned and continued to be used.

[0068] The filter box 20 is also provided with an air inlet 20a and an air outlet 20c. The airflow passing through the air inlet 10a enters the filter installation area 20b through the air inlet 20a, and then passes through the air outlet 20c and flows to the heat exchange component installation area 10b through the air port 10c.

[0069] The size of the air outlet 20c can be matched with the size of the air inlet 10c.

[0070] The filter can cover the air outlet 20c, that is, it can be understood that the area size of the air outlet 20c is close to the area size of the filter. In this way, the circulating air can basically be filtered through the filter and then flow out through the air outlet 20c.

[0071] The filter box 20 can be detachably arranged in the filter box installation area 10d without limitation. For example, it can be snap-fitted, plug-fitted or fastened with a fastener in the filter box installation area 10d.

[0072] It is understandable that in this embodiment, the filter box 20 can be removed as a whole from the filter box installation area 10d, so as to open the filter installation area 20b, and clean or replace the filter in the filter installation area 20b. Since the filter box 20 can be exposed to the external environment as a whole after being removed, the operating space of the operator is increased, and it is convenient for the operator to replace or clean the filter in the filter installation area 20b.

[0073] See also Figure 1 and Figure 4 In one embodiment, the filter box installation area 10d and the heat exchange component installation area 10b are arranged along a first direction, and the air inlet 10a and the filter box installation area 10d are arranged along a second direction.

[0074] In this embodiment, the air outlet 10c is located on one side of the filter box installation area 10d along the first direction, so as to facilitate changing the flow direction of the airflow. After the airflow changes direction, it enters the heat exchange component installation area 10b and is dehumidified under the action of the evaporator 31 and the temperature is increased under the action of the condenser 32.

[0075] In this way, the airflow can fully flow through the surface of the drying tunnel bottom cover 10, and the airflow does not flow only along a fixed direction in the heat pump assembly, thus effectively improving the phenomenon that the heat pump assembly is too large in a certain direction.

[0076] See also Figure 4 In one embodiment, an installation opening 10e is provided at one end of the filter box installation area 10d away from the air inlet 10a along the second direction, and the filter box 20 can enter and exit the filter box installation area 10d through the installation opening 10e along the second direction.

[0077] Thus, the filter box 20 can be removed or installed by pulling. At the same time, the installation port 10e and the air inlet 10a are respectively located at the two ends of the filter box installation area 10d. Therefore, during the process of removing or installing the filter box 20, the air inlet 10a will not be affected, reducing the probability of debris entering the drying chamber through the air inlet 10a.

[0078] See also Figure 1 In one embodiment, a fresh air port 20d is provided on the filter box 20, and fresh air can enter the filter box 20 through the fresh air port 20d.

[0079] Specifically, the fresh air outlet 20d is communicated with the filter installation area 20b of the filter box 20.

[0080] In this way, fresh air from the external space can be introduced into the filter installation area 20b through the fresh air inlet 20d, so that the circulating airflow of the clothing processing equipment can be supplemented with fresh air with low humidity and low temperature in time.

[0081] The specific shape of the fresh air outlet 20d is not limited, and can be, for example, circular, square or other shapes.

[0082] See also Figure 1 In one embodiment, the fresh air port 20d and the air inlet 10a are respectively located at opposite ends of the filter box 20 along the second direction.

[0083] That is to say, in this embodiment, fresh air and circulating air flow into the filter installation area 20b of the filter box 20 through the opposite ends of the filter box 20 along the second direction, and then leave the filter installation area 20b through the air outlet 20c located on one side of the filter installation area 20b along the first direction after being filtered by the filter.

[0084] In this way, during the process of replenishing fresh air, the circulating airflow basically will not flow into the area near the filter installation area 20b near the fresh air outlet 20d, that is, the flow path of the fresh air will basically not be occupied by the circulating airflow, thereby facilitating the introduction of fresh air through the fresh air outlet 20d.

[0085] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application, rather than to limit them; although the present application is described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or replace some or all of the technical features therein by equivalents; and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application, and they should all be included in the scope of the claims and specification of the present application.
