Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present disclosure relates to the field of household appliances, and in particular to a condenser and a clothes processing device. Background Art

[0002] At present, the drying principle of clothing treatment equipment is to contact the wet clothes to be dried by dry hot gas, so that the dry hot gas takes away the water vapor in the clothes to be dried, forming humid hot gas. Then the humid hot gas enters the condensation duct and combines with the condensed water to form dry cold gas. The dry cold gas can be heated and contacted with the wet clothes to be dried again, and the purpose of drying the items is achieved by continuous circulation.

[0003] During the above-mentioned air flow circulation process, the lint in the clothes to be dried will also enter the condensation duct along with the hot and humid gas and accumulate in the condensation duct, so that a lint layer will adhere to the inner wall of the condenser, blocking the condensation duct and reducing the heat exchange efficiency of the condenser. In severe cases, it will also affect the drying efficiency of the clothes processing equipment, giving users a bad experience. Utility Model Content

[0051] Exemplary embodiments will be described in detail herein, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings. When the following description refers to the drawings, the same numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements unless otherwise indicated. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with the present disclosure. Instead, they are merely examples of devices consistent with some aspects of the present disclosure as detailed in the appended claims.

[0052] Figure 1 Schematic diagram of a structure of a clothes processing device shown in the related art. Figure 1 As shown, the clothes processing device 20 includes: a condenser 10, a drum 22 and a drying tunnel 21. The first end of the condenser 10 can be connected to the drum 22, the second end of the condenser 10 can be connected to the drying tunnel 21, and the drying tunnel 21 is connected to the drum 22 to form an airflow loop.

[0053] The drum 22 of the clothes processing device 20 can accommodate clothes to be dried. The clothes to be dried react with the dry hot airflow introduced into the drum 22 by the drying channel 21 to form a humid hot airflow. The humid hot airflow carries the fluff generated by the clothes to be dried. The humid hot airflow can enter the condenser 10, and the fluff accumulates in the condenser 10, causing the air duct in the condenser 10 to be blocked, thereby reducing the heat exchange efficiency of the condenser 10, which is not conducive to the recycling of the airflow by the clothes processing device.

[0054] In order to solve the above technical problems, in the related art, a filtering structure and a flushing water path for flushing the filter are usually added in the condenser. However, due to the space limitation in the condenser, the above solution has a low efficiency in removing lint, which easily causes air duct blockage and reduces the drying speed of the clothing processing equipment.

[0055] An embodiment of the present disclosure provides a condenser. Figure 2 is a structural schematic diagram of a condenser according to an exemplary embodiment; Figure 3 is a schematic diagram of a cross-sectional structure of a condenser according to an exemplary embodiment Figure 1 , Figure 4 yes Figure 3 A local enlarged schematic diagram of area A shown in FIG. Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the condenser 10 comprises:

[0056] A condenser 11, wherein the condenser 11 comprises an air inlet 111 and an air outlet 112;

[0057] A condensation air duct 113 is formed inside the condensation tube 11, and the condensation air duct 113 is connected to the air inlet 111 and the air outlet 112;

[0058] A lint cleaning member 12 is disposed in the condensation air duct 113 and is used to move along the condensation air duct 113 to remove lint in the condensation air duct 113;

[0059] The magnetic component 13 is fixedly disposed on the condensing tube 11 ; different magnetic changes of the magnetic component 13 are used to allow or restrict the movement of the lint cleaning member 12 in the condensing air duct 113 .

[0060] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the condenser includes: a condenser tube, a lint cleaning piece and a magnetic component.

[0061] The condenser tube includes an air inlet and an air outlet. The air inlet is used to allow gas from an external space (such as a drum of a laundry processing device) to enter the condenser, and the air outlet is used to allow gas in the condenser to exit the condenser.

[0062] A condensation air duct is formed inside the condensation tube, and the condensation air duct is connected with the air inlet and the air outlet, so that the airflow flowing into the air inlet can flow to the air outlet through the condensation air duct.

[0063] The condensation air duct may be provided with a condensation medium, and the condensation medium is used to cool the hot and humid airflow flowing into the condensation air duct and precipitate moisture to become a dry and cold airflow.

[0064] Here, the condensation medium includes: water, fluorinated liquid, etc., and the embodiments of the present disclosure do not make specific limitations on this.

[0065] The lint cleaning piece can be movably disposed in the condensation air duct, and can move along the condensation air duct.

[0066] It is understandable that when the gas enters the condensation air duct from the external space, it may carry the fluff in the external space. When the fluff enters the condensation air duct with the gas, it may fall on the inner wall of the condensation air duct, forming fluff accumulation in the condensation air duct, thereby affecting the heat exchange efficiency of the condensation air duct for the airflow.

[0067] By arranging a lint cleaning piece in the condensation air duct and allowing the lint cleaning piece to move in the condensation air duct, the lint cleaning piece can come into contact with the inner wall of the condensation air duct during movement, thereby removing the lint in the condensation air duct.

[0068] It can be understood that the lint cleaning piece touches the inner wall of the condensation air duct. On the one hand, the lint cleaning piece can rub against the inner wall of the condensation air duct to generate relative movement, thereby wiping off the lint on the inner wall of the condensation air duct; on the other hand, by touching the inner wall of the condensation air duct, slight vibration can be generated, thereby reducing the accumulation of lint on the inner wall of the condensation air duct.

[0069] In some embodiments, the lint cleaning member can absorb lint on the inner wall of the condensation air duct and remove the lint in the condensation air duct during the movement of the lint cleaning member in the condensation air duct.

[0070] It can be understood that when the lint cleaning piece is able to adsorb the lint by electrostatic adsorption, the material of the lint cleaning piece may be a material with adsorption force; or, the surface of the lint cleaning piece may be provided with an electrostatic adsorption film; the lint cleaning piece may also achieve electrostatic adsorption of lint by other means, and the embodiments of the present disclosure do not make specific limitations on this.

[0071] It is understandable that when the lint cleaning piece is able to absorb the lint by bonding, a glue layer with bonding force may be provided on the surface of the lint cleaning piece; the lint cleaning piece may also achieve bonding of lint by other means, which is not specifically limited in the embodiments of the present disclosure.

[0072] It should be noted that the lint cleaning member can move along the condensation air duct under the action of an external force. Here, the external force can be a variety of forces such as wind force and magnetic force, and the embodiment of the present disclosure does not specifically limit this.

[0073] It should be noted that the shape and size of the lint cleaning piece can be set according to actual needs, and the present disclosure does not specifically limit this. The material used to make the lint cleaning piece can include a material with magnetic conductivity, such as iron, nickel, cobalt, steel, magnets, etc.

[0074] The magnetic component is fixedly arranged on the condenser tube. Here, the magnetic component can be fixedly connected to the inner wall or the outer wall of the condenser tube, and the embodiment of the present disclosure does not make any specific limitation on this.

[0075] In one embodiment, the magnetic component is fixedly disposed on the outer wall of the condenser tube, thereby reducing the situation where the magnetic component is disposed inside the condenser tube and affects the passage of airflow.

[0076] The magnetic component can generate different magnetism. Through the different magnetic changes of the magnetic component, the magnetic component can generate magnetic adsorption or non-magnetic adsorption to the lint cleaning piece.

[0077] When the magnetic component produces magnetic adsorption on the lint cleaning piece, the lint cleaning piece is attracted and moves close to the magnetic component and stops moving; the magnetic component limits the movement of the lint cleaning piece in the condensing air duct. When the magnetic component does not produce magnetic adsorption on the lint cleaning piece, the lint cleaning piece is not restricted by the magnetic component and can move freely.

[0078] In some embodiments, the condenser may include a condensation mode and a cleaning mode, wherein the condensation mode is used to condense the airflow passing through the condenser, and the cleaning mode is used to remove lint in the condensation tube.

[0079] In the condensation mode, the magnetic component can generate magnetic attraction to the lint cleaning member. In the cleaning mode, the magnetic component can generate no magnetic attraction to the lint cleaning member.

[0080] It is understandable that after the magnetic component absorbs the lint cleaning piece, the lint cleaning piece can be fixed at any position of the condenser tube, so that after the condenser starts the condensing mode, the airflow passing through the condenser will not drive the lint cleaning piece to move. On the one hand, the lint cleaning piece will not collide with the inner wall of the condenser tube to generate noise, and on the other hand, the lint cleaning piece will not disrupt the airflow direction and reduce the condensation effect, thereby effectively improving the user experience.

[0081] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the condenser includes an air inlet and an air outlet, and a condensation air duct connecting the air inlet and the air outlet is formed inside the condenser, so that air can pass through the condensation air duct; by providing a lint cleaning piece in the condensation air duct formed inside the condensation tube, and enabling the lint cleaning piece to move along the condensation air duct, the lint cleaning piece can remove lint on the inner wall of the condensation tube, thereby maintaining the condenser in a clean state.

[0082] Furthermore, by fixing the magnetic component on the condenser tube, the magnetic component can generate different magnetism, which can allow or restrict the movement of the lint cleaning piece in the condenser air duct. That is, the magnetic component can control the lint cleaning piece to stop moving in the condenser tube, so that when the condenser does not need to remove lint, the lint cleaning piece can be fixed in one position, reducing the impact of the lint cleaning piece on the refrigeration efficiency of the condenser during movement.

[0083] Optional, such as Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the magnetic component 13 includes:

[0084] Electromagnet 131;

[0085] A control circuit 132, connected to the electromagnet 131, for controlling the electromagnet 131 to be powered on or off;

[0086] When the electromagnet 131 is powered on, the lint cleaning member 12 is fixed on the condenser tube 11 under the action of the magnetic force generated by the electromagnet 131;

[0087] When the electromagnet 131 is powered off, the lint cleaning member 12 moves along the condensing air duct 113 under the action of wind force.

[0088] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the magnetic component includes: an electromagnet and a control circuit.

[0089] The electromagnet may be a device that generates a magnetic field using electric current.

[0090] In one embodiment, the electromagnet may be composed of a magnetic core and a coil. When current flows through the coil, the electromagnet can generate a magnetic field.

[0091] One end of the control circuit is connected to the electromagnet, and the other end is connected to a voltage source, so as to control the electromagnet to be powered on or off.

[0092] When the electromagnet is energized, the electromagnet generates magnetic force, and the lint cleaning piece is adsorbed on the condenser tube under the action of the magnetic force.

[0093] Here, when the electromagnet is located inside the condenser, the lint cleaning piece is adsorbed on the electromagnet, the electromagnet is fixed on the condenser, and the lint cleaning piece is indirectly adsorbed on the condenser; when the electromagnet is located inside the condenser, the lint cleaning piece is directly adsorbed on the condenser.

[0094] When the electromagnet is powered off, the electromagnet does not generate magnetic force. At this time, the lint cleaning piece can move along the condensation air duct under the action of external force.

[0095] Here, the lint cleaning piece can move along the condensation air duct under the action of wind force.

[0096] It should be noted that the wind that drives the lint cleaning piece to move can be the wind generated by the movement of air in the condenser tube when gas passes through the condensation air duct; it can also be the wind generated by installing components such as a hair dryer in the condenser tube; it can also be wind generated by other means, and the embodiments of the present disclosure do not make specific restrictions on this.

[0097] In the disclosed embodiment, the electromagnet can be powered on or off under the control of the control circuit. When powered on, the electromagnet can generate a magnetic force to control the lint cleaning piece to be fixed on the condenser tube, so that the lint cleaning piece stops removing lint; when powered off, the electromagnet no longer controls the lint cleaning piece, so that the lint cleaning piece can move along the condenser air duct under the action of wind force to remove lint.

[0098] Optional, such as Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the condenser tube 11 has a first end and a second end that are arranged opposite to each other;

[0099] The air outlet 112 is formed at the first end of the condensing tube 11, and the electromagnet 131 is fixed at the second end of the condensing tube 11;

[0100] The air inlet 111 is formed on the side wall of the condensing tube 11 , and the air inlet 111 is located between the air outlet 112 and the second end of the condensing tube 11 .

[0101] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the condenser tube has a first end and a second end that are arranged opposite to each other, the first end is formed with an air outlet, and the electromagnet is fixed to the second end. The air inlet is formed on the side wall of the condenser tube, and the air inlet is located between the air outlet and the second end at the setting position of the condenser tube, and is close to the second end.

[0102] It is understandable that the electromagnet is arranged at the second end, and when the electromagnet is powered on, the lint cleaning piece is fixed to the second end of the condenser tube, so as not to affect the flow of wind between the air inlet and the air outlet, and reduce the influence of the lint cleaning piece on the condenser in normal working state. And the air inlet is close to the second end, so as to reduce the distance between the second end and the condensation air duct, so as to facilitate the lint cleaning piece to enter the condensation air duct when the electromagnet is powered off, and improve the efficiency of removing lint.

[0103] In one embodiment, the first end may be the end of the condenser tube away from the ground, and the second end may be the end of the condenser tube close to the ground. Under the action of the wind force controlling the lint cleaning member, the lint cleaning member may move from bottom to top; when the wind force controlling the lint cleaning member is removed, the lint cleaning member may fall from the condenser air duct to the second end under the action of gravity, so that when the lint removal operation is not required, the electromagnet arranged at the second end can quickly absorb the lint cleaning member.

[0104] The structures of the air outlet and the air inlet of the condenser tube can be set according to actual needs, and the embodiments of the present disclosure do not specifically limit this.

[0105] In one embodiment, the first end of the condenser tube may be an elbow, and the air outlet is located at the end of the elbow, so that the condenser can be connected with other structural parts at the same horizontal height, thereby saving the space occupied by the condenser and other structural parts in the vertical direction on the one hand; on the other hand, the length of the condenser tube can be increased as much as possible in the equipment space with limited height, thereby enhancing the condensation efficiency of the equipment.

[0106] In the disclosed embodiment, by arranging an electromagnet at the second end of the condensation duct, it can be achieved that when the lint cleaning piece is not affected by wind force, the electromagnet can quickly fix the lint cleaning piece on the condensation duct, on the one hand reducing the influence on the normal operation of the condensation air duct; on the other hand, it can also be achieved that when the lint cleaning piece is affected by wind force, it can quickly enter the condensation air duct to complete the lint removal operation.

[0107] Optional, such as Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the difference between the outer diameter of the lint cleaning member 12 and the inner diameter of the condenser tube 11 is smaller than the preset width;

[0108] When the lint cleaning member 12 moves along the condensing air duct 113 , at least a portion of the outer surface of the lint cleaning member 12 maintains friction with the inner wall of the condensing tube 11 .

[0109] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the difference between the outer diameter of the lint cleaning piece and the inner diameter of the condenser tube is smaller than a preset width.

[0110] The value of the preset width can be set according to the inner diameter of the condenser tube. The preset width can take a first value so that the outer diameter of the lint cleaning piece is slightly smaller than the inner diameter of the condenser tube.

[0111] It can be understood that since the outer diameter of the lint cleaning piece is slightly smaller than the inner diameter of the condenser tube, the lint cleaning piece is likely to touch the inner wall of the condenser tube when moving along the condensation air duct, so that the outer surface of the lint cleaning piece can at least partially maintain friction with the inner wall of the condenser tube. On the one hand, it can improve the intensity of removing lint on the inner wall of the condenser tube, and on the other hand, it can increase the contact area between the lint cleaning piece and the inner wall of the condenser tube, thereby improving the efficiency of removing lint.

[0112] For example, as shown in the figure, the lint cleaning piece is a cuboid, and its outer diameter is slightly smaller than the inner diameter of the condenser tube. When the lint cleaning piece moves along the condenser air duct, it can slide in the condenser tube, and one surface of the lint cleaning piece contacts one surface of the condenser tube, effectively increasing the contact area.

[0113] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, by increasing the outer diameter of the lint cleaning piece, the contact area between the lint cleaning piece and the inner wall of the condenser tube can be increased, thereby improving the efficiency of removing lint.

[0114] Optional, Figure 5 is a schematic cross-sectional structure diagram of a lint cleaning piece according to an exemplary embodiment. Figure 6 The structure of a lint cleaning piece is shown according to an exemplary embodiment. Figure 1 , Figure 7 The structure of a lint cleaning piece is shown according to an exemplary embodiment. Figure 2 The lint cleaning member 12 comprises:

[0115] An outer shell 121, wherein an accommodating cavity is formed in the outer shell 121;

[0116] A magnetic member 122 is disposed in the accommodating cavity, and the magnetic member 122 is used to fix the lint cleaning member 12 to the condenser 11 when the magnetic member 122 is magnetically attracted to the magnetic assembly 13 .

[0117] In the disclosed embodiment, the lint cleaning piece includes: an outer shell.

[0118] A receiving cavity is enclosed in the outer shell, and a magnetic component is arranged in the receiving cavity.

[0119] The arrangement position and quantity of the magnetic member in the accommodating cavity can be arranged according to actual needs, and the embodiment of the present disclosure does not make any specific limitation on this.

[0120] When the magnetism generated by the magnetic component and the magnetism of the magnetic part are magnetically attracted to each other, the lint cleaning piece is fixed on the condenser tube; when the magnetism generated by the magnetic component and the magnetism of the magnetic part are not magnetically attracted to each other, the lint cleaning piece can remove the lint on the inner wall of the condenser tube after moving along the condensation air duct.

[0121] Optionally, the condenser further includes:

[0122] The driving fan is used to drive the lint cleaning member to move from the second end of the condensation tube to the air outlet of the condensation air duct when the electromagnet is powered off.

[0123] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the condenser further includes: a driving fan.

[0124] It can be understood that the driving fan can provide wind force for the lint cleaning member, so that when the electromagnet is powered off, the lint cleaning member can move in the condensation air duct.

[0125] Among them, the position of the driving fan can be set according to actual needs, and the embodiment of the present disclosure does not make any specific limitation on this.

[0126] The type of the driving fan can be set according to actual needs, and the embodiments of the present disclosure do not specifically limit this. For example, according to the different driving forms of the driving fan, the driving fan can be an electric driving fan, a hydraulic driving fan, etc. According to the different directions of the air outlet of the driving fan, the driving fan can be a single-sided air outlet driving fan, a double-sided air outlet driving fan, etc.

[0127] In one embodiment, the driving fan can be arranged at the second end of the condensing tube, and the air outlet is arranged at the first end of the condensing tube. The driving fan can send air toward the air outlet, so that the lint cleaning member can move from the second end to the condensing air duct and then to the vicinity of the air outlet. In addition, according to the change in the intensity of the air sent by the driving fan to the condensing air duct, the lint cleaning member can move to different height positions in the condensing air duct.

[0128] In one embodiment, the driving fan can be disposed at the air outlet, and the driving fan can exhaust air to the outside space, generate suction force on the inside of the condenser tube, and adsorb the lint cleaning member from the vicinity of the air inlet of the condenser tube to the condenser air duct. Furthermore, according to the change in the intensity of the exhaust of the driving fan to the outside space, the lint cleaning member can move in the condenser air duct.

[0129] In one embodiment, the driving fan can be arranged in the condensing air duct, and double-sided air supply can be achieved by continuously switching the forward and reverse rotation of the fan blades, thereby driving the lint cleaning element to move back and forth in the condensing air duct.

[0130] It is understandable that the lint cleaning member can move in the condensation air duct under the control of the driving fan. Moreover, the driving fan can switch the working state continuously, so that the lint cleaning member can rub against the condensation air duct multiple times, thereby improving the effect of removing lint.

[0131] In the disclosed embodiment, the lint cleaning member can be driven to move in the condensation air duct by driving the fan. This solution has a simple structure and is easy to implement.

[0132] Optionally, the surface of the lint cleaning piece has texture and / or a brush.

[0133] In the disclosed embodiment, the surface of the lint cleaning piece has texture and / or brushes.

[0134] It is understandable that when the lint cleaning piece has a texture on its surface, on the one hand, the friction strength between the lint cleaning piece and the inner wall of the condenser tube can be increased to ensure the cleaning strength of the lint cleaning piece. On the other hand, the surface area of ​​the lint cleaning piece can be increased, so that the lint cleaning piece can absorb more lint and improve the cleaning efficiency.

[0135] The shape and structure of the texture may be set according to actual needs, and the embodiments of the present disclosure do not specifically limit this.

[0136] It is understandable that when there is a brush on the surface of the lint cleaning piece, the contact area between the lint cleaning piece and the inner wall of the condenser tube can be increased, so that a larger area of ​​the inner wall of the condenser tube can be cleaned at one time, more lint can be removed, and the cleaning efficiency can be effectively improved.

[0137] The brush may be formed on the surface of the fluff cleaning piece by a bonding process; or the fluff cleaning piece with the brush may be directly manufactured by an integrated molding process.

[0138] Optional, Figure 8 is a schematic diagram of a cross-sectional structure of a condenser according to an exemplary embodiment Figure 2 ,like Figure 8 As shown, the condenser 10 further includes:

[0139] A flushing assembly 14, wherein the flushing assembly 14 has a flushing port 141;

[0140] The flushing port 141 extends into the condenser tube 11 and is used for flushing the inner wall of the condenser tube 11 and / or the fluff on the surface of the at least one fluff cleaning member 12 .

[0141] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the condenser further includes: a flushing component.

[0142] The flushing component has a flushing port, and the flushing port can extend into the condenser tube.

[0143] It is understandable that the flushing component can be connected to a water inlet pipe so that the flushing port of the flushing component can be flushed, thereby flushing the inner wall of the condenser tube and / or the lint on the surface of the at least one lint cleaning piece when flushing water at the flushing port.

[0144] It can be understood that the flushing port flushes water into the condenser, which can not only flush the airflow flowing through the condenser, but also flush the inner wall of the condenser and the lint cleaning piece, so that the lint in the airflow and the lint on the inner wall of the condenser and the surface of the lint cleaning piece all fall into the flushing water and are finally discharged from the condenser along with the water flow.

[0145] The installation position of the flushing component can be set according to actual needs, and the embodiment of the present disclosure does not limit this.

[0146] In one embodiment, the installation position of the flushing component may refer to the maximum position of the lint cleaning member moving in the condensation air duct, so that the flushing component can enhance the flushing ability of the lint cleaning member.

[0147] In the disclosed embodiment, the flushing port of the flushing assembly in the condenser tube can extend into the condenser tube to directly flush the inner wall of the condenser tube and the lint cleaning member, thereby further enhancing the ability to remove lint.

[0148] Optionally, the condenser is further provided with a drain outlet, and the drain outlet is used to discharge the flushing water in the condenser.

[0149] In the disclosed embodiment, the condenser is also provided with a drain outlet.

[0150] It can be understood that the flushing port in the flushing assembly can be used to flush water, thereby converging into a water flow in the condenser tube; on the one hand, the water flow in the condenser tube will affect the condensation efficiency of the condenser; on the other hand, there is a risk of being carried into the drying tunnel by the airflow, affecting the normal operation of the drying tunnel fan. Therefore, a drain port may also be provided in the condenser tube to discharge the flushing water in the condenser tube.

[0151] The drain port may be disposed at a lower position within the condenser tube, thereby facilitating the drainage of the flushing water.

[0152] In the disclosed embodiment, the condenser tube is provided with a drain port so that the flushing water in the condenser tube can be discharged from the condenser tube, thereby ensuring that the lint is carried out of the condenser tube by the flushing water, thereby achieving the removal of the lint.

[0153] The present disclosure provides a clothes processing device. Fig. 9 is a schematic structural diagram of a clothes processing device according to an exemplary embodiment. Fig. 9 As shown, the clothes processing device 20 comprises:

[0154] Roller 22;

[0155] A drying tunnel 21, wherein a first end of the drying tunnel 21 is connected to a first end of the drum 22;

[0156] In the condenser 10 shown in one or more of the above embodiments, the air inlet 111 of the condenser 10 is communicated with the second end of the drum 22 , and the air outlet 112 of the condenser 10 is communicated with the second end of the drying tunnel 21 .

[0157] In the disclosed embodiment, the clothing processing device may be a dryer having a drying function alone; or, the clothing processing device may be a washer-dryer having both a drying function and a washing function.

[0158] The clothes processing equipment comprises a drum, a drying tunnel and a condenser.

[0159] The drum is used to accommodate the clothes to be dried and has an opening so that the clothes to be dried can enter and exit the drum.

[0160] The first end of the drying tunnel (the end close to the opening of the drum) is connected to the first end of the drum (the end close to the opening), the second end of the drum (the end away from the opening) is connected to the air inlet of the condenser; the air outlet of the condenser is connected to the second end of the drying tunnel (the end away from the opening of the drum), thereby forming an air flow loop.

[0161] Wherein, the condenser comprises: a condenser tube, the condenser tube comprises an air inlet and an air outlet;

[0162] A condensation air duct is formed inside the condensation tube, and the condensation air duct is connected with the air inlet and the air outlet;

[0163] The lint cleaning member may be disposed in the condensation air duct and move along the condensation air duct to remove the lint in the condensation air duct.

[0164] A magnetic component is fixedly arranged on the condensing tube; different magnetic changes of the magnetic component are used to allow or restrict the movement of the lint cleaning piece in the condensing air duct.

[0165] It is understandable that the structure of the condenser can refer to Figures 1 to 8 For the sake of brevity, the description in the corresponding embodiments will not be repeated here.

[0166] It is understandable that when the clothes processing device is operating normally, the drum of the clothes processing device can accommodate clothes to be dried. After the clothes to be dried react with the hot dry gas introduced into the drum from the drying channel, hot and humid gas will be formed. The hot and humid gas carries fluff generated by the clothes to be dried. The hot and humid gas can enter the condensing air duct of the condenser. The fluff in the hot and humid gas will accumulate in the condenser, affecting the refrigeration efficiency.

[0167] The clothing processing device can start a cleaning mode so that the magnet assembly does not generate a magnetic force to control the lint cleaning piece. The lint cleaning piece removes lint by moving in the condensation air duct, thereby greatly reducing the impact of lint on various structural parts.

[0168] In the disclosed embodiment, a lint cleaning piece is provided in the condenser of the clothing processing device, and the lint cleaning piece is enabled to move along the condensation air duct, so that the lint cleaning piece can remove lint on the inner wall of the condensation tube and maintain the condenser in a clean state.

[0169] Furthermore, by fixing the magnetic component on the condenser tube, the magnetic component can generate different magnetism, which can allow or restrict the movement of the lint cleaning piece in the condenser air duct. That is, the magnetic component can control the lint cleaning piece to stop moving in the condenser tube, so that when the condenser does not need to remove lint, the lint cleaning piece can be fixed in one position, reducing the impact of the lint cleaning piece on the refrigeration efficiency of the condenser during movement.

[0170] Optional, such as Fig. 9 As shown, the driving fan in the condenser 10 is a drying tunnel fan 211 , which is used to drive the air flow to circulate between the drum 22 , the condenser 10 and the drying tunnel 21 .

[0171] In the disclosed embodiment, the drying tunnel comprises: a drying tunnel body and a drying tunnel fan;

[0172] The drying tunnel body can heat the dry cold gas processed by the condenser to generate dry hot gas.

[0173] The drying tunnel fan can blow air toward the first end of the drying tunnel, thereby driving the dry hot gas to flow out of the drying tunnel main body to the drum, the humid hot gas in the drum enters the condenser, and the dry cold gas in the condenser enters the drying tunnel main body, so that the airflow in the clothing processing equipment circulates.

[0174] During the above airflow circulation process, the drying tunnel fan will generate a certain driving force (or adsorption force) on the air or items in the condenser. Therefore, the drying tunnel fan can be used to replace the driving fan in the condenser.

[0175] It is understandable that the drying duct fan can drive the lint cleaning member to move in the condensing duct, so that the lint cleaning member removes the lint in the condensing tube.

[0176] In one embodiment, the drying duct fan may also control the moving distance of the lint cleaning member by controlling the intensity of the air supply, thereby controlling the lint cleaning member to move to different height positions in the condensing duct.

[0177] In one embodiment, the drying duct fan can also control the direction of movement of the lint cleaning component by controlling the direction of air supply, thereby controlling the lint cleaning component to move toward the air outlet or the air inlet in the condensation duct to form a reciprocating movement.

[0178] In the disclosed embodiment, the drying tunnel fan can be used as a driving fan in the condenser tube, thereby eliminating the need to provide other driving fans, saving space occupied by the fan and reducing costs.
