[0048] See also Figure 3 , Figures 4 to 8 In this embodiment, the rotating door 200 includes a rotating structure 210 and a door body 220. The rotating structure 210 is fixedly connected to the door body 220.

[0049] Fig. 9 yes Figure 5 Schematic diagram of the exploded structure described in .
[0050] See also Figures 5 to 9 The rotating structure 210 includes a rotating shaft 211, a connecting member 212 and a limiting member 213. The rotating shaft 211 extends in the up-down direction and is rotatably connected to the housing 100. The connecting member 212 connects the rotating shaft 211 and the door body 220. The limiting member 213 extends in the radial direction of the rotating shaft 211, one end of the limiting member 213 is connected to the rotating shaft 211, and the other end of the limiting member 213 is connected to the guide wheel 320.
[0051] When the door lock is opened, the door body 220 is connected to the rotating shaft 211 through the connecting member 212, and the gravity of the door body 220, the connecting member 212 and the rotating shaft 211 is transmitted downward to the stopper 213 and the guide wheel 320 to provide a downward pressure on the guide wheel 320.

[0052] Fig.10 The utility model is a structural schematic diagram of a shaft sleeve of a washing machine.
[0053] See also Figure 3 , Figures 5 to 10 In this embodiment, the upper and lower ends of the rotating shaft 211 are respectively limited in the shaft holes 121 of the two shaft sleeves 120, and the rotating shaft 211 can rotate in the shaft hole 121, and the rotating shaft 211 can move in the up and down direction relative to the two shaft sleeves 120. The connecting member 212 is located between the two shaft sleeves 120 to connect the rotating shaft 211 and the door body 220, thereby improving the stability of the rotating shaft 211 and the door body 220 during the rotation of the rotating shaft 211.
[0054] In some embodiments, the connecting member 212 includes a connecting arm 2121 and two connecting rods 2122. The connecting arm 2121 extends in the up and down directions. The connecting arm 2121 is detachably connected to the door body 220. One end of the two connecting rods 2122 is connected to the rotating shaft 211, and the other end of the two connecting rods 2122 is connected to the connecting arm 2121.
[0055] In other embodiments, the connecting arm 2121 is detachably connected to the door body 220 to facilitate assembly, disassembly and maintenance of the connecting member 212 and the door body 220. In other embodiments, the connecting arm 2121 is bolted to the door body 220.
[0056] In some embodiments, the connecting rod 2122 extends in the radial direction of the rotating shaft 211, and the two connecting rods 2122 are arranged at intervals in the vertical direction, one end of the two connecting rods 2122 is respectively connected to the upper and lower parts of the connecting arm 2121, and the other end of the two connecting rods 2122 is respectively connected to the upper and lower parts of the rotating shaft 211, so as to improve the connection strength between the connecting rod 2122 and the rotating shaft 211 and the connecting arm 2121.
[0057] In some embodiments, the connecting arm 2121 is located in the middle of the door body 220, and the two connecting rods 2122 are located in the middle of the rotating shaft 211, so that after the gravity of the door body 220 is transmitted to the rotating shaft 211 through the connecting arm 2121 and the connecting rod 2122, it is convenient for the two sleeves 120 to limit the rotating shaft 211. During the rotation of the sleeve 120, the friction between the rotating shaft 211 and the sleeve 120 is prevented from being too large, and the inner wall of the shaft hole 121 and the outer wall of the rotating shaft 211 are worn due to excessive friction.
[0058] In other embodiments, the connecting rod 2122 is detachably connected to the rotating shaft 211 and the connecting arm 2121. The connecting rod 2122 is threadedly connected or snap-fitted to the rotating shaft 211 and the connecting arm 2121. In other embodiments, the connecting rod 2122 is welded to the rotating shaft 211 and the connecting arm 2121.
[0059] See also Figure 3 , Figures 5 to 10 In this embodiment, the stopper 213 is located between the two shaft sleeves 120. The guide block 310 is located on the circumferential side of the lower shaft sleeve 120. The stopper 213 extends along the radial direction of the rotating shaft 211, one end of the stopper 213 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 211, and the other end is connected to the guide wheel 320, and the stopper 213 and the lower shaft sleeve 120 are arranged at intervals. When the revolving door 200 rotates, the weight of the door body 220, the connecting member 212, and the rotating shaft 211 is transmitted to the guide wheel 320 through the stopper 213, so that the guide wheel 320 rolls on the guide inclined surface 311, so that the door body 220 rotates around the rotation axis of the rotating shaft 211 to open the delivery port 101.
[0060] In some embodiments, there is only one sleeve 120, the lower end of the rotating shaft 211 is accommodated in the shaft hole 121 of the sleeve 120, and the connecting member 212 and the limiting member 213 are both located above the sleeve 120. The sleeve 120 limits the rotation of the rotating shaft 211.
[0061] In some embodiments, there are multiple sleeves 120 , which are spaced apart in the up-and-down direction, and are all sleeved on the rotating shaft 211 to improve the stability and reliability of the connection between the sleeves 120 and the rotating shaft 211 .
[0062] In other embodiments, there are multiple sleeves 120, some of which are arranged relative to the connecting rod 2122, and some of the sleeves 120 are provided with sliding holes (not shown in the figure) relative to the connecting rod 2122, the sliding holes extend along the circumference of the rotating shaft 211, the connecting rod 2122 passes through the sliding holes and is connected to the rotating shaft 211, and the connecting rod 2122 can rotate in the sliding holes around the rotation axis of the rotating shaft 211, and can rotate in the sliding holes in the up and down directions.
[0063] In the rotation direction of the rotating shaft 211, the inner wall of the end of the sliding hole can limit the rotation stroke of the connecting rod 2122, so that the sleeve 120 can limit the rotation angle of the door body 220 through the inner wall of the sliding hole and the connecting rod 2122, so as to facilitate the opening and closing of the door body 220 and improve the working efficiency of the door body 220.
[0064] In other embodiments, there are multiple sleeves 120, one of which is disposed relative to the stopper 213. The sleeve 120 is provided with a sliding hole relative to the stopper 213, and the stopper 213 passes through the sliding hole and is connected to the rotating shaft 211. The stopper 213 can rotate in the sliding hole around the rotation axis of the rotating shaft 211, and can rotate in the sliding hole in the up-down direction. In the rotation direction of the rotating shaft 211, the inner side wall of the end of the sliding hole can limit the rotation stroke of the stopper 213, so that the sleeve 120 can limit the rotation angle of the door body 220 through the inner wall of the sliding hole and the stopper 213.
[0065] In some embodiments, there are two sleeves 120, and the opposite sides of the two sleeves 120 are closed so that the shaft holes 121 are opened on the opposite sides of the two sleeves 120 to form a receiving groove. The two ends of the rotating shaft 211 can be rotatably received in the receiving groove, and the rotating shaft 211 can move in the up and down directions relative to the two sleeves 120.
[0066] In some embodiments, in a plane perpendicular to the up and down directions, there is an angle between the projection of the connecting member 212 and the projection of the limiting member 213, and the limiting member 213 is located on the side of the connecting member 212 away from the delivery port 101, so that the door body 220 can stably and reliably cover the delivery port 101.
[0067] See also Figure 3 , Figures 5 to 10 In this embodiment, the guide structure 300 includes a guide block 310 and a guide wheel 320. The guide block 310 extends around the rotation axis of the rotating shaft 211, and the guide wheel 320 is connected to the stopper 213. Under the gravity of the rotating door 200 or the action of the user, the guide wheel 320 can roll on the guide slope 311 on the guide block 310 to open or close the delivery port 101.
[0068] In this embodiment, the guide block 310 is disposed on the circumferential side of the shaft sleeve 120. The length between the guide block 310 and the rotation axis of the rotating shaft 211 is less than the length between the door body 220 and the rotation axis. This reduces the volume of the guide block 310, facilitates the installation and maintenance of the rotating structure 210, and facilitates the placement of the washing machine.
[0069] In some embodiments, the sleeve 120 and the guide block 310 are integrally formed, and in a plane perpendicular to the up-down direction, the sleeve 120 and the guide block 310 are semicircular, the guide slope 311 extends in an arc shape, and the angle between the two ends of the guide slope 311 and the rotation axis of the rotating shaft 211 is less than 180°, so that the rotation angle of the rotating shaft 211 is limited by the guide slope 311. In addition, the integrally formed sleeve 120 and guide block 310 can also effectively improve the production and installation efficiency of the sleeve 120 and the guide block 310, and reduce the installation cost of the washing machine.
[0070] In some embodiments, in the opening direction of the door body 220, the sleeve 120 forms a limiting wall 122 at the end of the guide slope 311. When the door body 220 is opened to a preset angle, the guide wheel 320 can abut against the limiting wall 122 to limit the rotation angle of the door body 220.
[0071] In other embodiments, the preset opening angle of the door body 220 can be set according to different models, types and applicable scenarios of the washing machine to facilitate the opening of the door body 220.
[0072] See also Figure 3 , Figures 5 to 10 In this embodiment, the guide wheel 320 is made of a flexible material to absorb the kinetic energy of the rolling wheel when it impacts the limiting wall 122, thereby reducing the rebound stroke after the door body 220 is opened to the maximum angle, and effectively improving the reliability and stability of the guide structure 300. In some embodiments, the guide wheel 320 is a rubber wheel, a flexible plastic wheel, or a silicone wheel.
[0073] In some embodiments, the guide block 310 is provided with a limiting wall 122 at the end of the guiding inclined surface 311 to limit the rotation angle of the guide wheel 320 around the rotating shaft 211 .
[0074] See also Figure 3 , Figures 5 to 10 In this embodiment, the guide block 310 is disposed on the circumferential side of the lower sleeve 120 .
[0075] In other embodiments, the guide block 310 is arranged on the circumferential side of the upper sleeve 120, the upper end of the rotating shaft 211 passes through the upper sleeve 120, the limiting member 213 is arranged at the upper end of the rotating shaft 211, and the guide wheel 320 is connected to the limiting member 213 and can be rolled against the guide block 310.
[0076] In other embodiments, the guide block 310 is detachably disposed on the housing 100, and the guide block 310 is located between the two connecting rods 2122, so that the distance between the outer diameter of the guide block 310 and the axis of the rotating shaft 211 is smaller than the distance between the door body 220 and the axis of the rotating shaft 211. The limit rod is located between the two connecting rods 2122, and the guide wheel 320 can roll against the guide inclined surface 311.
[0077] See also Figures 1 to 10 In the present invention, when the laundry is washed, the door lock is opened. After the door lock is opened, the gravity of the door body 220, the connecting member 212, the stopper 213 and the rotating shaft 211 is transmitted to the guide wheel 320 through the stopper 213. The guide wheel 320 rolls on the guide slope 311 under the action of gravity, so that the door body 220 rotates around the rotation axis of the rotating shaft 211 to open the delivery port 101. In addition, the door body 220, the connecting member 212 and the rotating shaft 211 move downward during the rotation process around the door body 220.
[0078] When the guide wheel 320 abuts against the limiting wall 122, the guide wall limits the guide wheel 320, thereby limiting the rotation of the rotating shaft 211 and the door body 220, so that the door body 220 opens to a preset angle. The user can judge that the clothes in the washing machine have been washed by opening the door body 220, so that the user can take out the clothes through the loading port 101.
[0079] When the clothes are taken out, the user can apply force to the door body 220 to move the door body 220 around the rotation axis of the rotating shaft 211 toward the delivery port 101, and the guide wheel 320 rolls on the guide slope 311 toward the delivery port 101. Thus, the door body 220 covers the delivery port 101, which is convenient for the next use.
[0080] In the present application, when the laundry in the washing machine is washed, the door lock is opened. When the door lock is opened, under the gravity of the rotating door 200, the guide wheel 320 rolls on the guide slope 311, and the rotating door 200 and the guide wheel 320 both rotate around the rotation axis of the rotating door 200. The rotating door 200 is opened under the action of its own gravity, so that the user can be reminded that the laundry in the washing machine has been washed, which effectively reduces the operation process of opening the door of the washing machine and improves the working efficiency of the washing machine.
[0081] Although the present application has been described with reference to several typical embodiments, it should be understood that the terms used are illustrative and exemplary, rather than restrictive. Since the present application can be implemented in a variety of forms without departing from the spirit or essence of the utility model, it should be understood that the above-mentioned embodiments are not limited to any of the aforementioned details, but should be widely interpreted within the spirit and scope defined by the attached claims, so all changes and modifications falling within the scope of the claims or their equivalents should be covered by the attached claims.
