Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of clothing care machines, in particular to a clothing care machine with a drum. Background Art

[0002] A clothing care machine is a device that can dry clothes washed in a washing machine and take care of clothes that have been hung in a closet for a long time.

[0003] A Chinese patent with announcement number CN213624866U discloses a double-tooth drive drum structure in a clothes dryer, including a box body, a drum for placing small pieces of clothing is arranged at the bottom of the box body, a central axis is mounted in the drum, a left bracket and a right bracket are arranged at both ends of the central axis, a motor is arranged on the left bracket, and a gear set for driving the central axis to rotate is arranged between the motor and the central axis.

[0004] When the drum in the above structure needs to rotate, the motor drives the gear set arranged between the motor and the central shaft to rotate, thereby driving the central shaft to drive the drum to rotate. If the above drum is removed from the box, the gear connected to the central shaft will be removed together. After that, if you want to reinstall the drum into the box, you need to repeatedly rotate the drum after the drum is loaded into the box so that the gear on the central shaft of the drum meshes with the gear on the motor. Only then can the installation of the drum be completed, which makes the installation process more cumbersome and time-consuming. Utility Model Content

[0005] The utility model provides a clothing care machine with a drum that is easy to install, aiming at the disadvantage of the prior art that when a drum needs to be removed from a box and needs to be reinstalled into the box, the drum needs to be repeatedly rotated so that the gear on the central axis of the drum meshes with the gear on the motor to complete the installation of the drum, resulting in the disadvantage that the installation process is cumbersome and time-consuming.

[0006] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model is solved by the following technical solutions:

[0007] A clothing care machine with a drum comprises a box body and a drum arranged in the box body, wherein rotating shafts are respectively arranged at the centers of both ends of the drum, and fixing components for fixing the drum are respectively arranged between the two rotating shafts and the two side walls of the box body, wherein the fixing components comprise fixing plates respectively arranged at the two sides of the box body near the rotating shaft, wherein a fixing groove with an opening facing upward and for partially inserting the rotating shaft is respectively arranged in the two fixing plates, and wherein limiting components are respectively arranged in the two fixing grooves for reducing the rotating shaft from escaping from the fixing groove when the rotating shaft is inserted into the fixing groove.

[0008] By adopting the above scheme, by setting the fixing grooves on the fixing plates on both sides of the box body, the rotating shafts on both sides of the drum can be partially inserted when the drum needs to be installed in the box body, and when the rotating shafts on both sides of the drum are inserted into the fixing grooves, the limiting components set in the fixing grooves will limit the rotating shafts. At this time, the installation between the drum and the box body can be completed. The installation process of the drum only requires the rotating shafts on both sides of the drum to be installed into the fixing grooves on the fixing plates on both sides inside the box body to complete the installation of the drum, thereby improving the efficiency of the installation of the drum.

[0009] Preferably, the limiting component comprises an elastic clamp with an opening facing upward and arranged in the fixing groove, and the opening of the elastic clamp is smaller than the diameter of the rotating shaft.

[0010] By adopting the above scheme, the elastic clamp can limit the rotating shaft when the rotating shaft is inserted into the fixed groove from top to bottom. When the drum needs to be installed in the box, the drum can be moved into the box first, and then the rotating shaft can be inserted into the fixed grooves on the fixed plates on both sides of the box. When the rotating shaft is inserted into the fixed groove, the rotating shaft will gradually enter the elastic clamp with the opening upward. At this time, the elastic clamp will limit the rotating shaft installed therein, reducing the probability of the rotating shaft escaping from the elastic clamp. When the rotating shafts at both ends of the drum are inserted into the elastic clamps, the installation between the drum and the box is completed.

[0011] Preferably, a driving component capable of driving the rotating shaft on the drum to rotate is provided on the box body.

[0012] Preferably, the driving component includes a motor arranged on a housing, an input shaft is arranged on the motor, and the axis of the input shaft is in the same straight line as the axis of the rotating shaft, and a rotating component is arranged between the input shaft and the rotating shaft for driving the rotating shaft to rotate together when the input shaft rotates.

[0013] By adopting the above scheme, the motor can drive the input shaft to rotate at startup, and when the input shaft rotates, the rotating shaft and the roller connected to the rotating shaft can be driven to rotate together through the rotating component, and the axial direction of the input shaft and the axis of the rotating shaft are set on the same straight line, when the input shaft drives the rotating shaft to rotate.

[0014] Preferably, the rotating component includes a first magnet arranged at the center of one end of the input shaft close to the rotating shaft, and a second magnet capable of attracting the first magnet is arranged at the center of one end of the rotating shaft close to the input shaft. When the input shaft drives the first magnet to rotate, the second magnet drives the rotating shaft to rotate together.

[0015] By adopting the above scheme, when the motor starts to drive the input shaft to rotate, the first magnet on the input shaft will rotate along with the input shaft. When the first magnet rotates, it will drive the second magnet attracted to it to rotate together, so that the second magnet drives the rotating shaft and the roller connected to the rotating shaft to rotate together.

[0016] Preferably, the first magnet and the second magnet are embedded in the input shaft and the rotating shaft respectively.

[0017] By adopting the above solution, the first magnet and the second magnet are respectively embedded in the input shaft and the rotating shaft, so that the first magnet and the second magnet do not need other components to fix them during installation, thereby making the installation of the first magnet and the second magnet more convenient.

[0018] The utility model has remarkable technical effects due to the adoption of the above technical scheme: by setting the fixing grooves on the fixing plates on both sides of the box body, the rotating shafts on both sides of the drum can be partially inserted when the drum needs to be installed in the box body, and when the rotating shafts on both sides of the drum are inserted into the fixing grooves, the limiting components set in the fixing grooves will limit the rotating shafts, and the installation between the drum and the box body can be completed at this time, because the installation process of the drum only needs to install the rotating shafts on both sides of the drum into the fixing grooves on the fixing plates on both sides inside the box body to complete the installation of the drum, thereby improving the efficiency of the drum during installation.
