DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0033] The following is a further detailed description of the implementation of the present application in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are used to illustrate the present application but cannot be used to limit the scope of the present application.

[0034] The various specific technical features and embodiments described in the specific implementation methods can be combined in any suitable manner unless there is any contradiction. For example, different implementation methods can be formed by combining different specific technical features / embodiments. In order to avoid unnecessary repetition, the various possible combinations of the specific technical features / embodiments in this application will not be described separately.

[0035] It should be noted that, in the present application, down refers to the direction toward the ground, up refers to the direction opposite to down, and the up and down directions are perpendicular to the horizontal direction.

[0036] The present application embodiment provides a base 100 for a clothes processing device, see Figures 1 to 9 The base 100 includes a main shell 10 and a baffle 20. The main shell 10 is formed with an opening 10a. The baffle 20 is movably connected to the main shell 10 to selectively open or cover the opening 10a.

[0037] The opening 10a can be used for the pipeline to enter and exit. For example, when the pipeline in the base 100 needs to be connected to the outside, the baffle 20 can open the opening 10a so that the pipeline can extend to the opening 10a, so that the pipeline can discharge liquid such as water to the outside.

[0038] The base 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application, when there is no need to connect the pipeline in the base 100 to the outside, the baffle 20 covers the opening 10a, which can prevent mice from entering the base 100 through the opening 10a; when it is necessary to connect the pipeline to the outside, the baffle 20 can open the opening 10a, and the pipeline extends out of the opening 10a. The opening 10a can be opened and closed by moving the baffle 20, which is convenient to operate, can effectively protect the pipeline in the base 100, and improve the anti-rat effect of the base 100. The baffle 20 is movably connected to the main shell 10, and the baffle 20 is integrated into the base 100. During the assembly process of the base 100 and / or the clothing treatment device, the baffle 20 and the main shell 10 can be assembled, which saves installation operations when the clothing treatment device is installed in the user's home.

[0039] Exemplarily, the baffle 20 is detachably connected to the main shell 10, so that an operator can load, unload and replace the baffle 20 by himself, which is convenient to operate.

[0040] The molding process of the main housing 10 and the baffle 20 is not limited, and illustratively, it can be injection molding, etc.

[0041] The embodiment of the present application provides a clothes processing device, including a box assembly and a base 100, the box assembly includes a box and a pipeline, the box is arranged above the base 100, and when the baffle 20 opens the opening 10a, at least part of the pipeline is arranged in the opening 10a. That is to say, when the clothes processing device is not in operation, the pipeline is arranged in the base 100, and the baffle 20 covers the opening 10a, which can prevent mice from entering the clothes processing device through the opening 10a and biting the wires, pipelines and other parts; when the clothes processing device is in operation, the baffle 20 moves and opens the opening 10a, and the pipeline extends out of the opening 10a.

[0042] The pipeline includes but is not limited to a drain pipe. The pipeline can also be other pipelines that may be used, for example, the pipeline can also be a water inlet pipe or an overflow pipe, etc.

[0043] The laundry processing device may be a washing machine. Exemplarily, the laundry processing device includes a rotatable inner drum and an outer barrel sleeved outside the inner drum, wherein a laundry processing chamber is formed in the inner drum. Thus, the posture of the laundry in the laundry processing chamber can be changed by rotating the inner drum, thereby improving the laundry processing efficiency; the outer barrel remains stationary.

[0044] Exemplarily, the laundry processing device may be a pulsator washing machine. That is, the rotation axis of the inner drum extends in the up-down direction.

[0045] For some examples, see Figure 2 The opening 10a is formed on the peripheral side of the main housing 10. That is, the baffle 20 is disposed on the peripheral side of the main housing 10, so that it is convenient for operators such as users or installation and maintenance personnel to move the baffle 20 to open the opening 10a and extend the pipeline.

[0046] In some embodiments, two opposite sides of the main housing 10 in the horizontal direction are formed with openings 10a. For example, the clothes processing device is arranged in a relatively narrow space such as a washroom or a balcony. Figure 2 The main housing 10 has two openings 10a formed on two opposite sides along the left-right direction, so that, for example, if the right side of the main housing 10 is close to the wall, the pipeline can extend through the opening 10a on the left side of the main housing 10, which is convenient for the pipeline to be routed. In this embodiment, the left-right direction is consistent with the horizontal direction.

[0047] For some examples, see Figure 3 The main housing 10 forms a limiting portion 11, which has a limiting groove 11a connected to the opening 10a, and at least part of the baffle 20 can be movably accommodated in the limiting groove 11a to selectively open or cover the opening 10a. In this way, the limiting groove 11a provides positioning and limiting functions for the baffle 20, and the baffle 20 can be quickly integrated into the main housing 10, and at the same time, it can also prevent the baffle 20 from shifting during the movement process.

[0048] For some examples, see Figure 3 and Figure 4 The limiting groove 11a passes through the top of the limiting portion 11, and the baffle 20 includes a supporting portion 21 and a shielding portion 22. The shielding portion 22 is connected to the supporting portion 21, and the shielding portion 22 is movably accommodated in the limiting groove 11a. When the shielding portion 22 shields the opening 10a, the supporting portion 21 is supported on the top of the limiting portion 11. The top of the limiting portion 11 contacts the supporting portion 21 to support the baffle 20 upward, thereby playing a stopping role.

[0049] For example, see Figure 3 The top of the limiting portion 11 has a first opening 11 b, and the baffle 20 enters and exits the limiting groove 11 a through the first opening 11 b. At the same time, the periphery of the supporting portion 21 provides a gripping space for the operator, which is convenient for moving and loading and unloading the baffle 20.

[0050] Exemplarily, the limiting portion 11 wraps around a portion of the circumferential surface of the shielding portion 22 , so that the gap between the circumferential surface of the shielding portion 22 and the surface of the limiting portion 11 is small enough to prevent a smaller mouse from squeezing into the opening 10 a through the gap.

[0051] In some embodiments, the baffle 20 is slidably connected to the main housing 10. That is, the opening 10a can be opened and closed by sliding the baffle 20, which is convenient to operate.

[0052] For some examples, see Figure 1 , the baffle 20 slides in the up-down direction, and the baffle 20 maintains the shielding state of the opening 10a under the action of gravity. For example, when at least part of the pipeline is inserted into the opening 10a, the baffle 20 abuts against the top surface of the pipeline, and the pipeline provides an upward support force to the baffle 20 to prevent the baffle 20 from falling; after the pipeline is removed from the opening 10a, the pipeline cancels the upward support force on the baffle 20, and the baffle 20 can slide downward and reset under the action of gravity. In this way, after the operator moves the baffle 20, the baffle 20 can reset itself, reducing operations.

[0053] In some embodiments, the baffle 20 is provided with a counterweight 30. For example, see Figure 4 The shielding portion 22 forms a storage cavity 22a, and a counterweight block 30 is disposed in the storage cavity 22a. By arranging a suitable counterweight block 30, the counterweight of the baffle 20 is increased to prevent mice from pushing open the baffle 20 and entering the base 100, thereby improving the mouse-proofing effect of the base 100.

[0054] For some examples, see Figures 5 to 7 The base 100 includes an elastic member 40 connected to the baffle 20, and the baffle 20 maintains a shielding state of shielding the opening 10a under the elastic force of the elastic member 40. For example, when at least part of the pipeline is inserted into the opening 10a, the baffle 20 abuts against the top surface of the pipeline, and the pipeline provides an upward support force to the baffle 20 to prevent the baffle 20 from falling; after the pipeline is removed from the opening 10a, the pipeline cancels the upward support force on the baffle 20, and the baffle 20 can slide downward and reset under the elastic force. In this way, after the operator moves the baffle 20, the baffle 20 can reset itself, reducing operations.

[0055] For example, see Figure 1 The baffle 20 moves in the up-down direction to open and close the opening 10a, and the elastic member 40 extends in the up-down direction. When the operator moves the baffle 20 upward, the elastic member 40 is in a compressed state, and the elastic force of the elastic member 40 is downward. The elastic force increases as the distance the baffle 20 moves upward increases. In this way, after the operator releases the baffle 20, the baffle 20 can be quickly reset to cover the opening 10a.

[0056] It is understandable that when the baffle 20 covers the opening 10 a , the elastic member 40 remains in a compressed state, that is, there is a downward elastic force that forces the baffle 20 to rest against a bearing surface such as the ground, thereby enhancing the reliability of the baffle 20 .

[0057] The type of the elastic member 40 is not limited, and for example, it can be a spring, etc. The elastic member 40 includes but is not limited to a compression spring or a tension spring, etc.

[0058] For some examples, see Figure 5 and Figure 7 The base 100 includes a connecting member 50 connected to the main housing 10, the connecting member 50 is formed with a connecting hole 50a, the baffle 20 is formed with a sliding rod 23, the elastic member 40 is sleeved outside the sliding rod 23, and the sliding rod 23 is slidably inserted into the connecting hole 50a. The sliding rod 23 can limit the movement and dislocation of the elastic member 40, prevent the elastic member 40 from bending and deforming during the deformation process, and provide positioning and limiting functions for the elastic member 40. The sliding rod 23 slides in the connecting hole 50a, so that the baffle 20 can slide relative to the main housing 10.

[0059] For example, see Figure 7 Two limiting plates 111 are formed at the top of the limiting part 11, and the two limiting plates 111 are arranged at intervals in the left-right direction. The connecting member 50 is U-shaped and its opening faces downward. The two limiting plates 111 abut against two opposite sides of the connecting member 50 to fix the connecting member 50. The elastic member 40 can be a spring, and the upward end of the spring is connected to the connecting member 50, and the downward end is connected to the support part 21. The spring is sleeved outside the sliding rod 23, so that the stability of the baffle 20 can be maintained during the movement in the up-down direction, and the spring can be prevented from bending and deforming during the compression process, causing the baffle 20 to deviate and be unable to reset.

[0060] In some embodiments, the baffle 20 is rotatably connected to the main housing 10. In this way, the stability of the baffle 20 during the process of opening and closing the opening 10a is maintained.

[0061] For some examples, see Figure 8 The baffle 20 and the main housing 10 are connected via a rotating shaft 221 , and the baffle 20 rotates around the axis of the rotating shaft 221 , which extends in a horizontal direction.

[0062] For example, see Figure 8 and Fig. 9 The shielding portion 22 is formed with a rotating shaft 221, and the main shell 10 is formed with a rotating portion 12. The rotating portion 12 has a limiting hole 12a extending in the horizontal direction, and part of the rotating shaft 221 is accommodated in the limiting hole 12a. In this way, the opening 10a can be opened and closed by only controlling the baffle 20 to rotate along the rotation direction, which is convenient to operate.

[0063] Figure 1 , R represents the rotation direction of the baffle 20.

[0064] In some embodiments, the base 100 includes a motor, which is electrically connected to the driving end of the baffle 20 to drive the baffle 20 to move to open and close the opening 10a. In this way, the operator does not need to manually control the baffle 20 to open and close the opening 10a, thereby improving the operator's experience.
