When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be deemed that such combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection required by this application.

[0053] The first aspect of the present application discloses a filtering device 100, Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 7As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the filter device 100 includes a filter component 1100 and a cleaning component 1200. The filter component 1100 is used to allow air flow to pass through and filter the air flow to obtain a filter material, and the filter component 1100 is provided with a discharge port 1117. The cleaning component 1200 is used to scrape the filter component 1100, thereby scraping the filter material on the filter component 1100 and driving the filter material to be transferred to the discharge port 1117, so that the filter material is discharged from the discharge port 1117.

[0054] The filter device 100 is described below in conjunction with a clothing processing device. There are many types of clothing processing devices, such as a clothing processing device that is a clothes dryer. The clothing processing device that is a clothes dryer will be taken as an example below. The clothing processing device includes a clothes drying barrel. When drying clothes, airflow is input into the clothes drying barrel and discharged from the clothes drying barrel. The airflow continuously takes away the moisture in the clothes drying barrel, thereby achieving the drying of the clothes. Since the clothes carry impurities such as lint, it is necessary to set a filter component 1100 to filter the lint to prevent the lint from wandering with the airflow and adhering to the corresponding position of the air path. As the drying process proceeds, the impurities such as lint filtered from the filter component 1100 will accumulate to form a filter, so it is necessary to clean the filter on the filter component 1100 to prevent the filter from clogging the filter component 1100 and causing the performance of the clothing processing device to decrease.

[0055] Specifically, in this embodiment, the filter device 100 includes a filter component 1100 and a cleaning component 1200. In the process of drying clothes, the airflow flows through the filter component 1100, and the filter component 1100 filters the airflow, and the filter material will be obtained on the filter component 1100, that is, the airflow can pass through the filter component 1100, but the impurities such as fluff in the airflow will be intercepted by the filter component 1100, so that the filter material is formed on the filter component 1100. When the filter material accumulates to a certain extent, the operation of the cleaning component 1200 is controlled to clean the filter material adhered to the filter component 1100. Since the filter material has a certain adhesion force on the filter component 1100, the cleaning component 1200 needs to sweep the filter component 1100 when it is in action. The so-called sweeping means that the cleaning component 1200 contacts and moves relatively with the filter component 1100, and directly scrapes the filter material on the filter component 1100 by mechanical means. It can be understood that when the cleaning component 1200 scrapes the filter component 1100, in addition to scraping off the filtered matter, as the cleaning component 1200 moves, the cleaning component 1200 also drives the filtered matter to move. A discharge port 1117 is provided on the filter component 1100. The cleaning component 1200 drives the scraped filtered matter to be transferred to the discharge port 1117, and then discharged through the discharge port 1117, so that the filtered matter leaves the filter component 1100.

[0056] It can be seen that the cleaning component 1200 can clean the filtered material so that the filtered material is separated from the filter component 1100, and the process does not require the user to touch it, thereby preventing the user from contaminating himself when cleaning the filter component 1100, thereby improving the user experience. At the same time, since the user does not need to clean it by himself, the filter component 1100 is effectively prevented from being blocked due to the user's forgetfulness, thereby ensuring the performance of the clothing processing device.

[0057] Combination Figure 3 and Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the filter component 1100 includes a filter (not shown in the figure) and a bracket 1110, and the filter is arranged on the bracket 1110 to prevent the filter from being deformed and causing the cleaning component 1200 to not cleanly sweep.

[0058] Specifically, the mesh size of the filter can be determined based on test conditions, and reference can be made to related technologies. When the airflow flows, the airflow passes through the filter, and the filter filters impurities such as lint in the airflow to obtain a filter. The cleaning component 1200 needs to sweep the filter to separate the filter from the filter. It can be understood that the cleaning component 1200 needs to generate a force between the filter and the filter when sweeping the filter, and the structural strength of the filter is relatively low, or in other words, the filter is relatively soft. Therefore, in this embodiment, a bracket 1110 is provided, and the filter is provided on the bracket 1110. When the cleaning component 1200 sweeps the filter, the bracket 1110 can support the filter to prevent the filter from being greatly deformed and causing the cleaning component 1200 to not sweep cleanly. This ensures the sweeping effect of the cleaning component 1200, thereby making the filter adhering to the filter as far as possible separate from the filter.

[0059] Combination Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the support 1110 and the filter screen enclose an airflow channel 1130, and the airflow needs to flow into the airflow channel 1130 before passing through the filter screen, so as to be filtered by the filter screen. It can be understood that the filter screen component 1100 can form a planar structure, but the planar structure will occupy a large space in a single direction. Therefore, in this embodiment, the airflow channel 1130 is enclosed by the support 1110 and the filter screen, so that the filter screen component 1100 has a three-dimensional structure, thereby avoiding a large space in a single direction, and at the same time ensuring the flow area of ​​the filter screen component 1100.

[0060] Furthermore, combined with Figure 3 and Figure 7 As shown, the bracket 1110 has a plurality of hollow positions 1116 , and the plurality of hollow positions 1116 are arranged alternately, and the filter needs to cover the hollow positions 1116 . By such an arrangement, the bracket 1110 can provide better support for the filter.

[0061] Specifically, if the flow area of ​​the filter component 1100 is too small, the flow of air will be affected. If the flow area of ​​the filter component 1100 is too large, more space will be occupied. Therefore, the flow area of ​​the filter component 1100 needs to match the overall performance of the clothing processing device and thus have a corresponding size. Therefore, in this embodiment, a plurality of hollow positions 1116 are provided on the bracket 1110, so that the bracket 1110 forms a hollow skeleton structure, and under the premise that the flow area of ​​the filter component 1100 remains unchanged, better support for the filter can be achieved.

[0062] For example, the bracket 1110 has a front frame 1111, a rear frame 1112, a bottom frame 1113, a left frame 1114 and a right frame 1115. The front frame 1111 is connected to the front side of the bottom frame 1113, the rear frame 1112 is connected to the rear side of the bottom frame 1113, the left frame 1114 is connected to the left side of the front frame 1111, the left side of the rear frame 1112 and the left side of the bottom frame 1113, the right frame 1115 is connected to the right side of the front frame 1111, the right side of the rear frame 1112 and the right side of the bottom frame 1113, the front frame 1111, the rear frame 1112 and the bottom frame 1113 are respectively provided with hollow positions 1116, and the filter covers the hollow positions 1116, so that the bracket 1110 and the filter enclose an air flow channel 1130.

[0063] The filter can be a complete one, which is connected to the bracket 1110 and covers multiple hollow positions 1116. The structure between adjacent hollow positions 1116 effectively supports the filter, so that the bracket 1110 can effectively support the filter.

[0064] The filter screen may also include multiple ones, with each hollow position 1116 connected to a corresponding filter screen (the filter screen is connected to the periphery of the hollow position 1116). In this solution, a single filter screen is smaller, and a single filter screen can achieve better support effect through the periphery of the corresponding hollow position 1116.

[0065] It can be seen that by providing the bracket 1110 with multiple hollow positions 1116, compared with a structure without multiple hollow positions 1116, the support effect on the filter can be effectively improved, thereby improving the sweeping effect of the cleaning component 1200.

[0066] Combination Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the discharge port 1117 is disposed at the bottom of the bracket 1110, which is more conducive to the discharge of the filtered material.

[0067] Specifically, when the cleaning component 1200 sweeps the filter screen, at least part of the filtered matter obtained by the sweeping falls downward under the action of gravity. As the cleaning component 1200 moves, the cleaning component 1200 will drive the filtered matter that falls to the bottom of the bracket 1110 to move with it until it drives the filtered matter to the discharge port 1117. Since the discharge port 1117 is set at the bottom of the bracket 1110, the filtered matter is discharged through the discharge port 1117 under the action of gravity, which is more convenient and quick.

[0068] Combination Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the cleaning component 1200 includes a driving mechanism 1210, a transmission mechanism 1220 and a scraping member 1230. The driving mechanism 1210 is drivingly connected to the transmission mechanism 1220, and the scraping member 1230 is arranged on the transmission mechanism 1220. The driving mechanism 1210 drives the transmission mechanism 1220 and then drives the scraping member 1230 to move through the transmission mechanism 1220. The scraping member 1230 needs to abut against the filter component 1100 (specifically, abut against the filter). During the movement of the scraping member 1230, the scraping member 1230 scrapes the filter component 1100.

[0069] Specifically, the driving mechanism 1210 generally outputs a rotational motion. For example, the driving mechanism 1210 is a motor, and the driving mechanism 1210 is configured to be fixed. The size range of the filter component 1100 is much larger than the position of the driving mechanism 1210. Therefore, the driving mechanism 1210 is not convenient for directly cooperating with the sweeping member 1230, but requires the assistance of the transmission mechanism 1220. The transmission mechanism 1220 plays a role in power transmission. The sweeping member 1230 is arranged on the transmission mechanism 1220. Through the transmission mechanism 1220, the sweeping member 1230 can be driven to move over a large range to achieve the sweeping of the filter component 1100.

[0070] Furthermore, in some embodiments of the present application, the transmission mechanism 1220 is used to drive the scraping member 1230 to move along an annular trajectory. It can be understood that the ring shape can be a circular ring, a square ring, an elliptical ring, a waist ring, etc. By moving the scraping member 1230 along the annular trajectory, a large range of movement of the scraping member 1230 can be achieved. There are corresponding parts of the filter component 1100 on the annular trajectory. In this way, a large range of scraping of the filter component 1100 can be achieved, and even a small number of scraping members 1230 can be provided to achieve effective scraping of the filter component 1100.

[0071] The circular trajectory is realized by the following structure, combined with Figure 7As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the transmission mechanism 1220 includes a first transmission wheel 1221, a second transmission wheel 1222 and a transmission belt 1223, the scraping member 1230 is arranged on the transmission belt 1223, the first transmission wheel 1221 and the second transmission wheel 1222 are arranged alternately, the transmission belt 1223 is sleeved on the first transmission wheel 1221 and the second transmission wheel 1222, and the first transmission wheel 1221 is drivingly connected to the driving mechanism 1210.

[0072] Specifically, the first transmission wheel 1221 and the second transmission wheel 1222 are in contact with the transmission belt 1223 respectively, and the driving mechanism 1210 drives the first transmission wheel 1221 to rotate, and the first transmission wheel 1221 drives the transmission belt 1223 to move, and the transmission belt 1223 drives the second transmission wheel 1222 to rotate, that is, the transmission belt 1223 rotates around the first transmission wheel 1221 and the second transmission wheel 1222, and at this time, the movement track of the transmission belt 1223 is a circular track, and the sweeping member 1230 is arranged on the transmission belt 1223 and moves with the transmission belt 1223, so that the sweeping member 1230 moves along the circular track. There are many schemes for setting the sweeping member 1230 on the transmission belt 1223, as long as it can be fixed relative to the transmission belt 1223, for example, the sweeping member 1230 is fixed to the transmission belt 1223 by bonding, or fixed to the transmission belt 1223 by screwing, of course, it can also be fixed to the transmission belt 1223 by other methods, which will not be repeated here.

[0073] Taking the filter component 1100 including the bracket 1110 and the filter as an example, the bracket 1110 and the filter enclose an airflow channel 1130, the bracket 1110 includes a front frame 1111, a rear frame 1112, a bottom frame 1113, a left frame 1114 and a right frame 1115, and the front frame 1111, the rear frame 1112 and the bottom frame 1113 are respectively provided with hollow positions 1116, and the filter is correspondingly provided on the hollow positions 1116. The first transmission wheel 1221, the second transmission wheel 1222 and the transmission belt 1223 are all arranged in the airflow channel 1130, the first transmission wheel 1221 is arranged at a position close to the left frame 1114, the second transmission wheel 1222 is arranged at a position close to the right frame 1115, and the discharge port 1117 is arranged at a position close to the bottom frame 1113 and the right frame 1115. The scraping member 1230 is arranged on the transmission belt 1223 and is located outside the range enclosed by the transmission belt 1223. When the transmission belt 1223 drives the scraping member 1230 to move, the scraping member 1230 scrapes the filter screens on the front frame 1111 and the rear frame 1112 on the side away from the transmission belt 1223, and the bottom of the scraping member 1230 scrapes the filter screen on the bottom frame 1113. As the scraping member 1230 moves along the circular trajectory, when the corresponding scraping member 1230 moves to above the discharge port 1117, the filtered matter driven by the scraping member 1230 is discharged through the discharge port 1117 under the action of gravity.

[0074] There are many ways to transmit the force between the first transmission wheel 1221 and the transmission belt 1223 and the second transmission wheel 1222 and the transmission belt 1223. For example, the transmission belt 1223 is sleeved on the first transmission wheel 1221 and the second transmission wheel 1222 and then tensioned, and the transmission is performed by friction (i.e., the belt transmission principle). In this embodiment, in order to improve the transmission of the force between the first transmission wheel 1221 and the transmission belt 1223 and the second transmission wheel 1222 and the transmission belt 1223, the transmission belt 1223 is combined with the first transmission wheel 1221 and the transmission belt 1223. Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the first transmission wheel 1221 is provided with gear teeth, the second transmission wheel 1222 is provided with gear teeth, and the transmission belt 1223 is provided with gear teeth. The gear teeth of the first transmission wheel 1221 are meshed with the gear teeth of the transmission belt 1223 for transmission, and the gear teeth of the second transmission are meshed with the gear teeth of the transmission belt 1223 for transmission (i.e., the gear transmission principle). This solution is more suitable for sweeping when there is a lot of filtrate (large load), which is not only beneficial to the transmission of force, but also can improve the service life.

[0075] Combination Fig. 9 As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the transmission mechanism 1220 further includes a first gear 1224, which is coaxially fixed with the first transmission wheel 1221, and the driving mechanism 1210 is provided with a second gear 1211, which is meshed and transmitted with the first gear 1224. Specifically, when the driving mechanism 1210 outputs rotational power, the driving mechanism 1210 can drive the first gear 1224 to rotate through the meshing transmission of the second gear 1211 and the first gear 1224. Since the first gear 1224 is coaxially fixed with the first transmission wheel 1221, the first transmission wheel 1221 is also rotated as the first gear 1224 rotates, thereby driving the transmission belt 1223 to move. By providing the first gear 1224 and the second gear 1211, the driving mechanism 1210 drives the first transmission wheel 1221.

[0076] Furthermore, the number of teeth of the first gear 1224 is greater than that of the second gear 1211, so that a reduction transmission is realized. It is understandable that when the amount of filtered material is large, the scraping member 1230 may cause jamming when scraping the filtered material, and the reduction transmission is helpful to increase the output torque and avoid jamming, while reducing the moving speed of the transmission belt 1223, that is, reducing the speed of the scraping member 1230 relative to the filter member 1100, improving the scraping effect, and helping to reduce the size of the driving mechanism 1210, thereby reducing costs and reducing space occupation.

[0077] Furthermore, the first gear 1224 is integrally formed with the first transmission wheel 1221. Since the first gear 1224 needs to be coaxially fixed with the first transmission wheel 1221, the first gear 1224 and the first transmission wheel 1221 are designed to be integrally formed, which simplifies the structural complexity between the first gear 1224 and the first transmission wheel 1221, and does not need to be coaxially fixed between the first gear 1224 and the first transmission wheel 1221 by additional connection means. In particular, when the first transmission wheel 1221 is provided with gear teeth, since the first gear 1224 also has corresponding gear teeth, the integrally formed design makes it easier to manufacture the gear teeth of the first gear 1224 and the gear teeth of the first transmission wheel 1221, or in other words, the first transmission wheel 1221 and the first gear 1224 are regarded as one component, a part of the component is regarded as the first transmission wheel 1221, and the other part is regarded as the first gear 1224, so that the gear teeth of the first transmission wheel 1221 and the gear teeth of the first gear 1224 are arranged in a colinear manner, which greatly simplifies the structure.

[0078] Combination Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the two ends of the scraper 1230 are respectively designed to be convex relative to the transmission belt 1223, that is, the two ends of the scraper 1230 along the extension direction of the rotation axis of the first transmission wheel 1221 (the extension direction of the rotation axis of the second transmission wheel 1222 is the same as the extension direction of the rotation axis of the first transmission wheel 1221) are respectively convex relative to the transmission belt 1223, see Figure 4 As shown in the orientation, the upper end of the scraper 1230 protrudes above the transmission belt 1223, and the lower end of the scraper 1230 protrudes below the transmission belt 1223. By such an arrangement, the size of the transmission belt 1223 can be reduced while ensuring that the scraper 1230 is in contact with the filter component 1100, thereby reducing costs.

[0079] Combination Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, one end of the scraper 1230 is defined as the first end 1233, the other end of the scraper 1230 is defined as the second end 1234, the upper end of the scraper 1230 is the first end 1233, the lower end of the scraper 1230 is the second end 1234, and the second end 1234 is protruded downward relative to the transmission belt 1223.

[0080] Taking the filter component 1100 including the bracket 1110 and the filter as an example, the bracket 1110 and the filter enclose an airflow channel 1130, the bracket 1110 includes a front frame 1111, a rear frame 1112, a bottom frame 1113, a left frame 1114 and a right frame 1115, and the front frame 1111, the rear frame 1112 and the bottom frame 1113 are respectively provided with hollow positions 1116, and the filter is correspondingly provided on the hollow positions 1116. The first transmission wheel 1221, the second transmission wheel 1222 and the transmission belt 1223 are all arranged in the airflow channel 1130, the first transmission wheel 1221 is arranged at a position close to the left frame 1114, the second transmission wheel 1222 is arranged at a position close to the right frame 1115, and the discharge port 1117 is arranged at a position close to the bottom frame 1113 and the right frame 1115. As the transmission belt 1223 drives the sweeping member 1230 to move, the filtered matter swept by the sweeping member 1230 falls downward to the bottom of the bracket 1110 (i.e., falls to the bottom frame 1113) under the action of gravity, and the filtered matter may enter the range surrounded by the transmission belt 1223 (the so-called range surrounded by the transmission belt 1223, i.e., Figure 5 and Figure 6 The second end 1234 is convexly arranged downward relative to the transmission belt 1223, and is also convexly arranged toward the range surrounded by the transmission belt 1223, that is, at Figure 5 and Figure 6 From top to bottom, the second end 1234 can be observed within the range surrounded by the transmission belt 1223 , so that the second end 1234 can drive the filtered material located at the bottom of the bracket 1110 and within the range surrounded by the transmission belt 1223 to be transferred to the discharge port 1117 .

[0081] In some embodiments of the present application, Figure 7 As shown, there are multiple sweeping members 1230, and the multiple sweeping members 1230 are arranged alternately along the motion track of the transmission mechanism 1220. Specifically, the sweeping members 1230 need to be arranged on the transmission belt 1223, and the transmission belt 1223 is annular, so the multiple sweeping members 1230 are arranged alternately along the extension direction of the transmission belt 1223, so that the multiple sweeping members 1230 are arranged alternately in annular shape. By providing multiple sweeping members 1230, each sweeping member 1230 sweeps less filtered material, and prevents a single sweeping member 1230 from getting stuck when sweeping more filtered material, thereby ensuring that the transmission belt 1223 drives the multiple sweeping members 1230 to move continuously.

[0082] Combination Figure 8As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the scraping member 1230 is provided with a main body 1231 and a soft brush head 1232, the soft brush head 1232 is arranged on the main body 1231, and the main body 1231 is arranged on the transmission mechanism 1220, and the scraping member 1230 scrapes the filter component 1100 through the soft brush head 1232 to obtain the filtered material.

[0083] Specifically, the body 1231 has a higher structural strength than the soft brush head 1232, and the body 1231 can effectively support the soft brush head 1232. Since the filter screen component 1100 needs to be scraped by the soft brush head 1232, the soft brush head 1232 can achieve a certain deformation, and when scraping the filter screen component 1100, the damage of the filter screen component 1100 can be effectively avoided. At the same time, the deformation of the soft brush head 1232 makes the contact between the soft brush head 1232 and the filter screen component 1100 closer, avoiding the situation of missing scraping. For example, the soft brush head 1232 is a deformable structure such as a silicone brush head or a rubber brush head.

[0084] Combination Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the cleaning component 1200 is installed on the filter component 1100. It can be understood that since the cleaning component 1200 needs to sweep the filter component 1100, the cleaning component 1200 is installed on the filter component 1100, and the filter component 1100 is equivalent to forming an installation base, which reduces the difficulty of matching the cleaning component 1200 with the filter component 1100. If the cleaning component 1200 is installed at other positions, the cleaning component 1200, the filter component 1100 and the aforementioned other positions form a three-way match, while in this embodiment, the cleaning component 1200 is installed on the filter component 1100 to form a two-way match, which is conducive to reducing the difficulty of matching the cleaning component 1200 with the filter component 1100.

[0085] Taking the filter component 1100 including the bracket 1110 and the filter as an example, the bracket 1110 and the filter enclose an airflow channel 1130, and the cleaning component 1200 is installed on the bracket 1110. The bracket 1110 has a high structural strength, thereby achieving effective support for the cleaning component 1200. After the cleaning component 1200 is installed on the bracket 1110, the cleaning component 1200 is in the airflow channel 1130. It can be understood that as long as at least a part of the cleaning component 1200 is located in the airflow channel 1130, it can be regarded as that the cleaning component 1200 is installed in the airflow channel 1130, for example, the entire cleaning component 1200 is installed in the airflow channel 1130, or the corresponding part of the cleaning component 1200 that sweeps the filter is set in the airflow channel 1130. Since the filter component 1100 already occupies a certain space, based on the formation of the airflow channel 1130, the cleaning component 1200 is installed in the airflow channel 1130, so as to make full use of the space and avoid the cleaning component 1200 occupying the space outside the filter component 1100, making the structure more compact. At the same time, since the cleaning component 1200 needs to sweep the filter, installing the cleaning component 1200 in the airflow channel 1130 also shortens the sweeping action stroke of the cleaning component 1200, which is more conducive to the structural optimization of the cleaning component 1200.

[0086] The cleaning component 1200 is installed in the air flow channel 1130 in the following manner to reduce the difficulty of assembling the cleaning component 1200 and the filter component 1100. Figure 4 and Figure 7 As shown, the bracket 1110 has an open end 1118, and the open end 1118 is connected to the airflow channel 1130. The airflow needs to flow into the airflow channel 1130 through the open end 1118 and then pass through the filter. Through the setting of the open end 1118, the cleaning component 1200 can be inserted into the airflow channel 1130 from the open end 1118 and supported on the bracket 1110. In this way, the formation of the airflow channel 1130 can be realized, and the installation of the cleaning component 1200 is also convenient.

[0087] For example, the cleaning component 1200 and the filter component 1100 are assembled as follows: the filter device 100 also includes a first shaft 1330, a second shaft 1340, a first support plate 1310 and a second support plate 1320, the first shaft 1330 is inserted into the air flow channel 1130 from the open end 1118 and one end of the first shaft 1330 is fixed to the bracket 1110, the second shaft 1340 is inserted into the air flow channel 1130 from the open end 1118 and one end of the second shaft 1340 is fixed to the bracket 1110, the first transmission wheel 1221 or the component composed of the first transmission wheel 1221 and the first gear 1224 is inserted into the air flow channel 1130 and sleeved to The first shaft 1330 and the second transmission wheel 1222 are installed in the air flow channel 1130 and are sleeved on the second shaft 1340. The transmission belt 1223 sleeves the first transmission wheel 1221 and the second transmission wheel 1222. The first support plate 1310 is connected to the bracket 1110 and is located at the open end 1118. The other end of the first shaft 1330 is fixed to the first support plate 1310. The driving mechanism 1210 is installed on the first support plate 1310 so that the second gear 1211 is meshed with the first gear 1224. The second support plate 1320 is connected to the bracket 1110 and is located at the open end 1118. The other end of the second shaft 1340 is fixed to the second support plate 1320.

[0088] In some embodiments of the present application, the filter component 1100 is designed to be detachable. It is understandable that, although the user does not need to manually clean the filtered material by scraping the cleaning component 1200, the filter component 1100 will become dirty when the filter device 100 is used many times. At this time, the filter component 1100 needs to be deeply cleaned. For this reason, the filter component 1100 is designed to be detachable in this embodiment, that is, the filter component 1100 can be installed on the clothing processing device or detached from the clothing processing device. Since the cleaning component 1200 is installed on the filter component 1100, the detachable setting of the filter component 1100 also realizes the detachable setting of the cleaning component 1200.

[0089] In order to ensure the power supply to the cleaning component 1200, Figure 3 and Fig.10As shown, the filter component 1100 is provided with a first connection terminal 1350, and the first connection terminal 1350 is electrically connected to the cleaning component 1200. For example, the first connection terminal 1350 is electrically connected to the driving mechanism 1210 of the cleaning component 1200 through an electric wire. When the filter component 1100 is installed in the clothing processing device, it is specifically installed on the front support 3200 of the clothing processing device. The front support 3200 can support the drying barrel. The front support 3200 is provided with a second connection terminal 3300, and the second connection terminal 3300 is designed to be detachably connected to the first connection terminal 1350. When the filter component 1100 is installed on the front support 3200, the first connection terminal 1350 is connected to the second connection terminal 3300 to achieve electrical connection between the first connection terminal 1350 and the second connection terminal 3300. It can be understood that the second connection terminal 3300 is electrically connected to the power supply component of the clothing processing device, so that the power supply to the cleaning component 1200 can be achieved. When the filter component 1100 is disassembled, the first connection terminal 1350 and the second connection terminal 3300 can be separated to achieve the disassembly of the filter component 1100.

[0090] Furthermore, there are multiple ways to achieve detachable connection between the first connection terminal 1350 and the second connection terminal 3300, such as a detachable magnetic connection between the first connection terminal 1350 and the second connection terminal 3300. When the filter component 1100 is installed in place, the first connection terminal 1350 and the second connection terminal 3300 are magnetically connected to achieve electrical connection between the first connection terminal 1350 and the second connection terminal 3300. When the filter component 1100 needs to be disassembled, the first connection terminal 1350 and the second connection terminal 3300 are easily separated under the action of force. Through such a setting, the disassembly and assembly process of the filter component 1100 is smoother.

[0091] Furthermore, combined with Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the filter device 100 also includes a cover 2100, which is arranged upstream of the filter component 1100 and the cleaning component 1200, and the cover 2100 is used for airflow to pass through. It can be understood that the so-called upstream means that the airflow first flows through the cover 2100. The cover 2100 is arranged upstream, and its main function is to prevent clothes from entering the position where the filter component 1100 and the cleaning component 1200 are located and interfering with the operation of the cleaning component 1200. The cover 2100 is equivalent to a structure that can both allow airflow to pass through and play a shielding role. Therefore, a larger hole is set on the cover 2100 for airflow to flow through.

[0092] Combination Fig.11As shown, the filter device 100 also includes a collection box 2200. The filtered material discharged from the discharge port 1117 enters the collection box 2200. The collection box 2200 realizes temporary storage of the filtered material, and the collection box 2200 is designed to be detachable. It can be understood that the collection box 2200 has a certain capacity. After a single operation of the clothing processing device, the filtered material generally does not fill the collection box 2200. Therefore, the collection box 2200 can be removed and dumped after the clothing processing device is used multiple times. In this way, the frequency of users removing the collection box 2200 to dump the filtered material can be reduced, further improving the user experience.

[0093] Furthermore, the collection box 2200 is arranged below the discharge port 1117. It can be understood that the orientation in this article is based on the clothing processing equipment being placed normally in use, with the side close to the ground being the bottom and the side away from the ground being the top. The collection box 2200 has an opening 2210 that opens upward. When the filtered material is discharged through the discharge port 1117, it is convenient for it to fall into the collection box 2200 under the action of gravity, and the structure is simple.

[0094] Continue to combine Fig.11 As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the clothing processing device includes a base 3100, which supports the entire clothing processing device, and the collection box 2200 is detachably mounted on the base 3100. Specifically, the base 3100 has a discharge channel 3120, which is located below the discharge port 1117 and communicates with the discharge port 1117. The base 3100 also has a first installation cavity 3110, which is located below the discharge channel 3120 and communicates with the discharge channel 3120. The collection box 2200 is detachably mounted in the first installation cavity 3110, so that the open port 2210 of the collection box 2200 is connected to the discharge channel 3120. In order to prevent the filtered matter from being discharged in sequence along with the air flow, the first installation cavity 3110 is provided. Leakage through the discharge port 1117 and the discharge channel 3120, the collection box 2200 has a sealing strip 2220 at the edge of the opening 2210, that is, the sealing strip 2220 surrounds the opening 2210, when the collection box 2200 is installed in the first installation cavity 3110, the sealing strip 2220 and the periphery of the discharge channel 3120 abut against each other, thereby playing a sealing role, and the airflow enters the collection box 2200 through the discharge port 1117 and the discharge channel 3120, and it is difficult to leak from the collection box 2200 and the cavity wall of the first installation cavity 3110. Furthermore, a handle 2230 is provided at the front end of the collection box 2200, and the user can conveniently realize the disassembly and assembly of the collection box 2200 by holding the handle 2230.

[0095] The second aspect of the present application discloses a clothing processing device, which includes the above-mentioned filter device 100. For example, the clothing processing device includes a base 3100 and a front support 3200, the front support 3200 is fixed to the base 3100, the front support 3200 has a second installation cavity 3210, the filter component 1100, the cleaning component 1200 and the cover 2100 are installed in the second installation cavity 3210, and the collection box 2200 is installed in the first installation cavity 3110 of the base 3100. It can be understood that the filter device 100 of the clothing processing device of this embodiment adopts the technical solution of the above-mentioned embodiment, and therefore at least has the beneficial effects brought by the technical solution of the above-mentioned embodiment, which will not be repeated here.

[0096] The third aspect of the present application discloses a method for controlling a clothes processing device. Based on the above clothes processing device, the control method comprises the following steps:

[0097] S10: The control program starts, and controls the cleaning component 1200 to run for a time s at each interval t.

[0098] The manufacturer can set the running time s and the running time interval t of the cleaning component 1200 according to the drying test results of various clothes (including but not limited to materials, clothing quantity, etc.) to ensure the cleaning effect.

[0099] S20: Record the number of times the cleaning component 1200 operates, and issue a prompt when the number of times reaches a preset value.

[0100] The number of times the cleaning component 1200 operates can be the number of times the driving mechanism 1210 operates. The number of operations can be recorded by the controller. When the number of operations reaches the setting, a prompt is issued to remind the user to clean the collection box 2200. The prompt can be in the form of sound, light, text, etc. It can be understood that this number of operations is a cumulative value until the user cleans the collection box 2200 and then restarts the count.

[0101] Furthermore, the following step is also included, S30: parameter adjustment is required before the control program is started, and the parameters include type, material, quantity, temperature and / or time. Different programs are provided for different clothes (different parameters can be regarded as different programs), and each level has a corresponding running time s and running interval t. Before running the program, the user can select the corresponding program (parameter) according to the actual clothes, so as to make the drying of clothes more targeted.

[0102] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present application, and does not limit the patent scope of the present application. All equivalent structural changes made based on the concept of the present application and the contents of the present application description and drawings, or direct / indirect application in other related technical fields are included in the patent protection scope of the present application.
