Some clothing processing equipment usually has a drying function, such as a heat pump dryer. This type of clothing processing equipment usually has a filter device installed inside. In the process of drying clothes, the airflow will take away the hair on the clothes. When the airflow passes through the filter device, the hair in the airflow will adhere to the filter device. If the hair in the filter device is not processed for a long time, the hair will accumulate and block the filter device, affecting the circulation of the airflow, and even breeding bacteria in the filter device, causing secondary pollution to the clothes. Therefore, it is necessary to set a self-cleaning device in the filter device, or manually clean the hair in the filter device in time. However, in the prior art, the filter device is usually a square structure, and there are dead corners when cleaning the hair, which easily causes incomplete cleaning of the hair. In addition, the square structure of the filter device has a large wind resistance when circulating air, which will affect the air circulation of the clothing processing equipment and further affect the drying function.

[0074] According to an embodiment of the utility model, the cleaning device 13 includes a scraper 131 and a driving device 132. One end of the scraper 131 is rotatably connected to the top of the filter support 11, and the other end of the scraper 131 extends toward the arc-shaped wall 113. The driving device 132 is disposed on the filter support 11 and can selectively drive the scraper 131 to rotate to clean the filter 14. The cleaning device 13 is provided with a scraper 131 and a driving device 132. The scraper 131 is a structure for scraping off hair scraps, and the driving device 132 is a structure for driving the scraper 131 to work. Specifically, one end of the scraper 131 is rotatably connected to the top of the filter support 11, and the other end of the scraper 131 extends into the filter channel and extends toward the arc-shaped plate. The driving device 132 is disposed on the filter support 11 and is linked to one end of the scraper 131.

At this time, the driving device 132 can be arranged on the cover plate 121 with the second sliding cover 1322 of the scraper 131, and the second sliding cover 1322 is only used to drive the scraper 131 to rotate. Specifically, when the filter assembly 1 is cleaned, the baffle 122 moves to open the sewage outlet 15, the second sliding cover 1322 slides and drives the scraper 131 to rotate, and the scraper 131 rotates toward the sewage outlet 15 driven by the second sliding cover 1322 to scrape off the hair on the filter 14 and discharge it through the sewage outlet 15, thereby completing the cleaning process of the filter assembly 1.

[0082] According to one embodiment of the utility model, a second rack 13221 is provided on the second sliding cover 1322; the driving device 132 also includes a second gear 13222 and a third gear 13223, the second gear 13222 is rotatably provided on the first bracket 111 and / or the second bracket 112 and meshes with the second rack 13221; the third gear 13223 is rotatably provided on the first bracket 111 and / or the second bracket 112 and meshes with the second gear 13222, and the third gear 13223 is connected to the scraper 131; wherein, the second gear 13222 is suitable for rotating when the baffle 122 opens the sewage outlet 15 to drive the third gear 13223 to drive the scraper 131 to rotate toward the sewage outlet 15.

[0083] like Figure 10-12 As shown, since there is a linkage relationship between the second sliding cover 1322 and the scraper 131, the driving device 132 can also set a second gear 13222 and a third gear 13223 that can mesh with each other between the second sliding cover 1322 and the scraper 131, the second gear 13222 and the third gear 13223 can respectively cooperate with the second sliding cover 1322 and the scraper 131, the second gear 13222 and the third gear 13223 are meshed with each other to drive the scraper 131 to move to realize the linkage between the second sliding cover 1322 and the scraper 131. Specifically, the second sliding cover 1322 may be provided with a second rack 13221 meshing with the second gear 13222, and the third gear 13223 may be connected to the scraper 131. When the filter assembly 1 is cleaned, the baffle 122 moves to open the sewage outlet 15, the second sliding cover 1322 slides to drive the second gear 13222 to rotate, the second gear 13222 drives the third gear 13223 to rotate, and the third gear 13223 drives the scraper 131 to rotate toward the sewage outlet 15.
