DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0036] In order to more clearly understand the above-mentioned purposes, features and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention, the scheme of the embodiments of the present invention will be further described below. It should be noted that the embodiments of the present invention and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict.

[0037] In the following description, many specific details are set forth to facilitate a full understanding of the embodiments of the utility model, but the embodiments of the utility model can also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein; obviously, the embodiments in the specification are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, rather than all of the embodiments.

[0038] Reference Figures 1 to 5As shown, this embodiment provides a connection bracket 1, which is used on a clothes processing device 10. The clothes processing device 10 can be a washing machine (such as a drum washing machine), a washing and drying machine, etc.

[0039] The laundry processing device 10 includes a laundry processing drum 2 and a driving structure 4 , and the connecting bracket 1 is connected to one side of the laundry processing drum 2 in an axial direction.

[0040] Exemplarily, the clothes processing drum 2 is specifically an inner drum, and the front side of the clothes processing drum 2 in the axial direction has a clothes loading port, and the connecting bracket 1 is located at the rear side of the clothes processing drum 2 in the axial direction, and the connecting bracket 1 is connected to the clothes processing drum 2. The driving structure 4 is connected to the connecting bracket 1, and the driving structure 4 is used to drive the connecting bracket 1 to rotate, and the clothes processing drum 2 is driven by the connecting bracket 1 to rotate, so as to achieve the processing of clothes. In addition, the outer side of the clothes processing drum 2 can also be provided with an outer drum 3, and the outer drum 3 is provided with an avoidance hole for the driving structure 4 and the connecting bracket 1 to connect, so that the clothes processing drum 2 can rotate relative to the outer drum 3 when the clothes are processed.

[0041] The driving structure 4 may include a driving member 41 and a transmission member 42. The driving member 41 may be, for example, a driving motor, and the transmission member 42 may include, for example, a transmission wheel, which is connected to the center of the connecting bracket 1 through a shaft system 5, and a conveyor belt 6 is arranged around the output shaft of the driving motor and the outer periphery of the transmission wheel. When in use, the driving motor is controlled to work, and the transmission wheel can drive the connecting bracket 1 and the laundry treatment drum 2 to rotate under the action of the conveyor belt and the output shaft of the driving motor.

[0042] The connecting bracket 1 includes at least two supporting arms 11 , and each supporting arm 11 extends radially outward from the center of the connecting bracket 1 .

[0043] In the axial direction of the laundry treatment tub 2, each support arm 11 has a first surface 111 and a second surface 112 opposite to each other. Figure 2 Among all the support arms 11, the projections of at least two support arms 11 on the laundry treatment tub 2 are located on the same straight line, and among the two support arms 11 located on the same straight line, the first surface 111 of one support arm 11 has a recessed portion 113, and the second surface 112 of the other support arm 11 has a recessed portion 113.

[0044] That is, the recessed directions of the recessed portions 113 of the two support arms 11 located on the same straight line are opposite.

[0045] Among all the above-mentioned support arms 11, at least two support arms 11 have their projections on the laundry treatment tub 2 located on the same straight line, which specifically means, for example, when there are two support arms 11, the two support arms 11 are located on the same straight line; for example, when there are three support arms 11, two of the support arms 11 are located on the same straight line. For another example, when there are four support arms 11, two of the support arms 11 may be located on the same straight line, and the other two support arms 11 may also be located on the same straight line, or only two of the four support arms 11 may be located on the same straight line.

[0046] The connecting bracket provided in this embodiment can disperse the force on the support arm 11 to a certain extent by setting a recessed portion 113 on the support arm 11, avoid stress concentration on the support arm 11 to a certain extent, and enhance the structural strength of the corresponding support arm 11, thereby improving the structural strength of the connecting bracket 1 and meeting the performance requirements of the connecting bracket 1.

[0047] In a specific implementation, since the center of the connecting bracket 1 is connected to the driving structure 4, and the end of the support arm 11 away from the center of the connecting bracket 1 is connected to the clothing processing drum 2, if the clothing processing drum 2 rotates eccentrically due to unbalanced placement of loads such as clothing, one of the two support arms 11 located on the same straight line will be subjected to an external force away from the side of the clothing processing drum 2 under the action of the load, etc., and since the end of the support arm 11 away from the center of the connecting bracket 1 is connected to the clothing processing drum 2, the other support arm 11 will be subjected to an external force in the opposite direction applied by the clothing processing drum 2, that is, the two support arms 11 located on the same straight line are subjected to opposite force directions along the axial direction of the clothing processing drum 2.

[0048] Combination Figure 2 As shown, exemplarily, F is the force applied by the load to the clothing treatment drum 2. When the recessed portion 113 on the support arm 11 axially below the clothing treatment drum 2 is arranged in a direction away from the clothing treatment drum 2, and the support arm 11 is subjected to a force F in a direction away from the clothing treatment drum 2 (to the right), F includes two components: F1 and F2, wherein the side of the support arm 11 facing the clothing treatment drum 2 is subjected to a tensile force F2, and the side of the support arm 11 away from the clothing treatment drum 2 is subjected to a compressive force F1, and the presence of the tensile force can easily cause the support arm to break. Therefore, by setting the recessed portion 113 on the support arm 11 in a direction away from the clothing treatment drum 2, that is, making the area of ​​the side of the support arm 11 facing the clothing treatment drum 2 larger than the area of ​​the side of the support arm 11 away from the clothing treatment drum 2, the support arm 11 can bear a larger force, thereby improving the structural strength of the support arm 11.

[0049] Continue to refer to Figure 2As shown, when the recessed portion 113 on the support arm 11 located axially above the clothing processing drum 2 is arranged in the direction of the clothing processing drum 2, and the support arm 11 is subjected to a left-directed external force F', F' includes two components: F1' and F2', wherein the side of the support arm 11 facing away from the clothing processing drum 2 is subjected to a tensile force F1', and the side of the support arm 11 facing the clothing processing drum 2 is subjected to a compressive force F2', and the presence of the tensile force can easily cause the support arm 11 to break, so by setting the recessed portion 113 on the support arm 11 in the direction of the clothing processing drum 2, that is, making the area of ​​the side of the support arm 11 facing away from the clothing processing drum 2 larger than the area of ​​the side of the support arm 11 facing the clothing processing drum 2, the support arm 11 can bear a larger force, thereby improving the structural strength of the support arm 11.

[0050] That is to say, if the laundry treatment tub 2 rotates eccentrically, for example, the load such as the laundry in the laundry treatment tub 2 is placed unbalancedly, causing the laundry treatment tub 2 to rotate eccentrically, the two support arms 11 located on the same straight line are subjected to opposite forces along the axial direction of the laundry treatment tub 2 (for example, refer to Figure 3 As shown, the dotted arrow is a schematic diagram of the force direction, the force on the upper support arm 11 is upward, and the force on the lower support arm 11 is downward). Therefore, of the two support arms 11 on the same straight line, the recessed portion 113 of one support arm 11 (for example, the upper support arm 11) is located on the first surface 111, and the recessed portion 113 of the other support arm 11 (for example, the lower support arm 11) is located on the second surface 112, that is, the recessed directions of the recessed portions 113 on the two support arms 11 on the same straight line are opposite, so that the connecting bracket 1 can effectively bear a greater force, thereby improving the strength and stability of the connecting bracket 1, and making the connecting bracket 1 better support the clothing processing drum 2.

[0051] Moreover, by making the recessed directions of the recessed portions 113 on the two support arms 11 on the same straight line opposite to each other, that is, making the recessed portion 113 of only one support arm 11 on the two support arms 11 on the same straight line be located on the side of the connecting bracket 1 facing the clothing processing drum 2, compared with the scheme in which the recessed portions on the two support arms on the same straight line are both arranged on the side of the connecting bracket facing the clothing processing drum, when a drainage hole is provided at the rear end of the clothing processing drum 2, the above arrangement can also reduce the probability of lint and other debris in the clothing processing drum 2 entering into each recessed portion 113 through the drainage hole to a certain extent, effectively reducing the probability of lint blockage and being beneficial to ensuring the treatment effect of clothing.

[0052] In some embodiments, reference Figure 3 to Figure 4As shown, the recessed portion 113 is a groove extending along the extension direction of the support arm 11. The extension direction of the support arm 11 is specifically the direction from one end of the support arm 11 close to the center of the connection bracket 1 to one end of the support arm 11 away from the center of the connection bracket 1.

[0053] The support arm 11 is strengthened by forming a groove in the support arm 11 . The structure is simple and easy to form, and the material cost of the connecting bracket 1 can be saved to a certain extent.

[0054] Of course, in other implementations, the recessed portion 113 may also include two opposite reinforcing ribs disposed on the support arm 11 , and the two reinforcing ribs and the support arm together define a recessed structure, thereby playing a reinforcing role.

[0055] In some embodiments, reference Figures 3 to 5 As shown, the groove includes a bottom wall 1131 and two oppositely disposed side walls 1132. The side walls 1132 are connected to the bottom wall 1131 and extend in a direction away from the bottom wall 1131.

[0056] The width of the outer bottom surface of the bottom wall 1131 is greater than the sum of the widths of the ends of the two side walls 1132 away from the bottom wall 1131 .

[0057] The width of the outer bottom surface of the bottom wall 1131 specifically refers to the width of the outer bottom surface of the bottom wall 1131. Figure 5 The width dimension L in the X direction, the width of the end of the side wall 1132 away from the bottom wall 1131 specifically refers to the width of each side wall 1132 in the Figure 5 The width dimension in the X direction is L1, that is, L>L1+L1.

[0058] Through the above arrangement, the outer bottom surface of the bottom wall 1131 is larger than the area of ​​the two side walls 1132 away from the bottom wall 1131, so that the bottom wall 1131 can bear a greater tensile force without being easily broken or damaged. Figure 2 As shown, by setting the groove on the support arm 11 located axially below the clothing processing drum 2 in a direction away from the clothing processing drum 2, the bottom wall 1131 of the support arm 11 bears the corresponding pulling force, and by setting the groove on the support arm 11 located axially above the clothing processing drum 2 in the direction of the clothing processing drum 2, the bottom wall 1131 of the support arm 11 also bears the corresponding pulling force, thereby further enabling the connecting bracket 1 to effectively bear a greater force, thereby further improving the structural strength and stability of the connecting bracket 1.

[0059] In some embodiments, reference Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the first surface 111 faces the inner cavity of the laundry processing tub 2 , and the bottom surface of the groove on the first surface 111 is an arc-shaped surface convex toward the direction away from the inner cavity of the laundry processing tub 2 .

[0060] Such an arrangement can avoid stress concentration on the bottom surface of the groove to a certain extent, thereby further improving the structural strength of the support arm 11 and the connecting bracket 1. Moreover, such an arrangement is conducive to reducing airflow noise.

[0061] In some embodiments, reference Figure 3 to Figure 4 As shown, there is an even number of support arms 11. The even number of support arms 11 are grouped together in pairs, and the projections of the two support arms 11 in the group on the laundry treatment tub 2 are located on the same straight line.

[0062] Such an arrangement can further improve the overall stability of the connection bracket 1 and its ability to bear external forces, thereby ensuring that the connection bracket 1 stably and reliably supports the clothes processing drum 2 , further satisfying the performance requirements of the connection bracket 1 .

[0063] In some embodiments, reference Figure 3 to Figure 4 As shown, all the support arms 11 have a recessed portion 113. This arrangement can further improve the structural strength of the connecting bracket 1, thereby further improving the supporting effect of the connecting bracket 1 on the laundry treatment tub 2.

[0064] In some embodiments, reference Figure 3 to Figure 4 As shown, among two adjacent support arms 11 , the recessed portion 113 on one support arm 11 is located on the first surface 111 of the support arm 11 , and the recessed portion 113 on the other support arm 11 is located on the second surface 112 of the support arm 11 .

[0065] Such an arrangement can further improve the uniformity of the force applied to the connecting bracket 1 , thereby further improving the stability and structural strength of the connecting bracket 1 .

[0066] In some embodiments, reference Figure 3 to Figure 4 As shown, all the support arms 11 are evenly arranged at equal distances along the circumference of the laundry treatment tub 2. This arrangement can improve the stability of the connecting bracket 1 to a certain extent, and make the supporting effect of the connecting bracket 1 on the laundry treatment tub 2 more stable and reliable.

[0067] In some embodiments, reference Figures 2 to 4 As shown, a side of the support arm 11 facing the inner cavity of the laundry processing tub 2 is an arc-shaped surface, and the arc-shaped surface protrudes in a direction away from the inner cavity of the laundry processing tub 2 .

[0068] In this way, on the one hand, the arrangement of the curved surface on the support arm 11 can further avoid the stress concentration on the support arm 11, and further improve the structural strength of the connecting bracket 1; on the other hand, it also enables the support arm 11 to cooperate with the side of the clothing treatment drum 2 facing the connecting bracket 1, for example, the support arm 11 and the clothing treatment drum 2 can be made to fit correspondingly, which can increase the contact area between the two to a certain extent, which is beneficial to ensure the stable support of the connecting bracket 1 to the clothing treatment drum 2, and can also further reduce the airflow noise.

[0069] In some embodiments, reference Figure 3 to Figure 4 As shown, one end of the support arm 11 away from the center of the connecting bracket 1 is provided with a connecting portion 114 for connecting to the laundry treatment tub 2. In this way, the connection between the support arm 11 and the laundry treatment tub 2 can be realized through the connecting portion 114, and the connection is convenient.

[0070] Exemplarily, the connection portion 114 may be a connection hole, a mounting hole is provided at the position corresponding to the connection hole of the laundry processing drum 2, and the connection bracket 1 may be connected to the laundry processing drum 2 by means of screws passing through the connection hole and the mounting hole.

[0071] Of course, in other embodiments, the connecting portion 114 may also be a connecting buckle, etc.

[0072] In some embodiments, reference Figure 3 to Figure 4 As shown, the connecting bracket 1 further includes a reinforcing member 12. The reinforcing member 12 includes at least two reinforcing sections 121, and two adjacent supporting arms 11 are connected via at least one reinforcing section 121.

[0073] This arrangement can further improve the structural strength of the support arm 11 and the connecting bracket 1 , ensure good support of the connecting bracket 1 to the clothing processing drum 2 , enable stable clothing processing, and meet the performance requirements of the connecting bracket 1 .

[0074] In some embodiments, reference Figure 3 to Figure 4 As shown, the reinforcing section 121 is connected between the ends of two adjacent support arms 11 away from the center of the connecting bracket 1. This arrangement can further improve the reinforcing effect of the reinforcing section 121 on each support arm 11, so that the stability of the support arm 11 can be further improved.

[0075] In some embodiments, the reinforcing section 121 is integrally formed with the support arm 11. This makes the overall structural strength of the reinforcing member 12 and the support arm 11 high, thereby further improving the structural strength of the entire connecting bracket 1, and also improving the assembly efficiency of the connecting bracket 1 and the laundry treatment drum 2 to a certain extent.

[0076] In some embodiments, reference Figure 3 to Figure 4As shown, a reinforcing portion 13 is further provided at the junction of the reinforcing section 121 and the support arm 11. This can improve the structural strength between the support arm 11 and the reinforcing section 121 to a certain extent, further improve the structural strength of the connecting bracket 1, and make the connecting bracket 1 better support the laundry treatment tub 2.

[0077] Exemplarily, the reinforcement part 13 may be, for example, a reinforcement plate, a reinforcement rib, etc. The reinforcement part 13 may be integrally formed with the support arm 11 and the reinforcement section 121 , thereby further improving the strength of the entire connection bracket.

[0078] Continue to refer to Figures 1 to 5 As shown, this embodiment further provides a clothes processing device 10 , including a clothes processing drum 2 and a connecting bracket 1 .

[0079] In specific implementation, the connection and support of the clothing processing drum 2 is achieved through the connecting bracket 1, and the recessed portion 113 provided on the above-mentioned connecting bracket 1 can improve the structural strength of the connecting bracket 1 to a certain extent, so that the connecting bracket 1 meets the performance requirements and improves the supporting effect of the connecting bracket 1 on the clothing processing drum 2, and has high stability during clothing processing.

[0080] The specific structure and implementation principle of the connecting bracket 1 in this embodiment are the same as those in the above embodiment, and can bring the same or similar technical effects, which will not be described one by one here, and the details can be referred to the description of the above embodiment.
