Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of washing machines, and in particular to a dispenser for washing machines and a washing machine. Background Art
[0002] At present, the dispenser boxes of drum washing machines on the market are generally integrated, that is, the front handle and the detergent box are designed as an integrated whole, and a water outlet is set at the top of the dispenser box. Users need to manually pull out the entire dispenser box, judge whether the detergent box is empty, and replace various clothing cleaning liquids and care liquids in time. Since the amount of laundry detergent used each time is not fixed, and the material and structure of the dispenser box are not fixed, users cannot find out in time or cannot accurately judge whether the detergent box needs to be replenished or replaced, which affects the washing effect and brings a certain degree of laundry trouble to users. If there is still detergent in the detergent box, when the user frequently pulls it out to check the internal situation, it will cause the detergent to seep out from the outlet, which not only requires the user to clean it regularly, but also causes a waste of resources.
[0003] Related technology discloses a washing machine and a detergent box liquid level detection device thereof, belonging to the field of washing machines, including a shell and an electrode plate, wherein a receiving cavity is arranged in the shell; two electrode plates are arranged in the receiving cavity at intervals and are respectively connected to the shell, and one end of the electrode plate extends out of the shell and is connected to the power circuit of the washing machine, and an insulating layer is arranged on the portion of the electrode plate located in the receiving cavity. During detection, direct current is passed through the two electrode plates, thus forming a capacitor. When the liquid level in the receiving cavity rises, the relative dielectric constant between the two electrode plates increases, thereby significantly increasing the capacitance of the parallel plate capacitor. The higher the liquid level, the greater the capacitance. In this way, the height of the liquid level can be roughly measured by measuring the capacitance between the two electrode plates.
[0004] In the process of implementing the embodiments of the present disclosure, it is found that there are at least the following problems in the related art:
[0005] If there is residual washing liquid on the side wall of the washing liquid box, the liquid level detection device in the related art may have a problem that the detection result is very different from the actual situation, and it is not possible to intuitively remind the user when the washing liquid is used up.
[0006] It should be noted that the information disclosed in the above background technology section is only used to enhance the understanding of the background of the present application, and therefore may include information that does not constitute the prior art known to ordinary technicians in the field.

[0042] The term "and / or" is a description of the association relationship between objects, indicating that three relationships can exist. For example, A and / or B means: A or B, or, A and B.
[0043] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present disclosure may be combined with each other.
[0044] Combination Figure 1-7 As shown, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a dispenser for a washing machine, comprising a body 1, a fixing member 2, a rotating member 3 and a detergent box 4.
[0045] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, one side of the fixing member 2 is connected to the main body 1, and the other side is provided with an arc groove 21; the rotating member 3 is provided with an arc protrusion 31, the arc protrusion 31 is clamped with the arc groove 21, and the two sides are abutted with the main body 1, and the rotating member 3 can rotate around the center of the arc protrusion 31 relative to the fixing member 2; the washing liquid box 4 includes a first end 41 and a second end 42, the first end 41 is connected to the rotating member 3, and the second end 42 can move between an initial position in contact with the main body 1 and a tilted position away from the main body 1; wherein, when the weight of the washing liquid box 4 is greater than or equal to a preset value, the rotational torque of the washing liquid box 4 is greater than or equal to the rotational torque of the rotating member 3, and the second end 42 is located at the initial position; when the weight of the washing liquid box 4 is less than the preset value, the rotational torque of the washing liquid box 4 is less than the rotational torque of the rotating member 3, and the second end 42 moves from the initial position to the tilted position.
[0046] With the dispenser provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the washing liquid box 4 can rotate relative to the main body 1 together with the rotating part 3. When the weight of the washing liquid box 4 is greater than or equal to a preset value, the rotational torque of the washing liquid box 4 is greater than the rotational torque of the rotating part 3 or the two sides reach a balance, and the second end 42 tends to rotate downward or remains stationary. When the weight of the washing liquid box 4 is less than the preset value and the rotational torque on one side of the rotating part 3 is greater, the rotating part 3 drives the washing liquid box 4 to rotate, and the second end 42 moves from the initial position to the tilted position. When the user pulls the dispenser out of the washing machine, the washing liquid box 4 rotates and pops up, thereby intuitively prompting the user to replace the washing liquid box 4.
[0047] Alternatively, if Figure 1 As shown, the distance between the edge of the arc protrusion 31 of the rotating member 3 and the center of the circle is L1, the distance between the second end 42 and the center of the circle is L2, L2=nL1, the weight of the rotating member 3 is W1, and the weight of the washing liquid box 4 is W2; wherein, n>0; when nW2≥W1, the second end 42 is located at the initial position; when nW2<W1, the rotating member 3 and the washing liquid box 4 rotate around the center of the circle, and the second end 42 moves from the initial position to the tilted position.
[0048] The working principle of the present application is the same as the lever principle, which includes three factors: a power point, a fulcrum, and a resistance point. When the rotating member 3 rotates with the washing liquid box 4, the center of the arc protrusion 31 of the rotating member 3 is the fulcrum of rotation, the edge of the arc protrusion 31 is the power point of rotation, the second end 42 of the washing liquid box 4 is the resistance point of rotation, the distance L1 between the edge of the arc protrusion 31 and the center is the power arm, the distance L2 between the second end 42 of the washing liquid box 4 and the center of the arc protrusion 31 is the resistance arm, the weight W1 of the rotating member 3 is the power, the weight W2 of the washing liquid box 4 is the resistance, the product of the power and the power arm is the power torque, and the product of the resistance and the resistance arm is the resistance torque.
[0049] When the dynamic torque is equal to the resistance torque, that is, L1W1=L2W2, a state of equilibrium is reached between the rotating member 3 and the washing liquid box 4, and the rotating member 3 and the washing liquid box 4 do not rotate; when the dynamic torque is less than the resistance torque, that is, L1W1<L2W2, because L2=nL1, that is, nW2>W1, the second end 42 has a tendency to rotate downward, and the rotating member 3 has a tendency to rotate upward, but due to the limitation between the arc groove 21 and the arc protrusion 31, the arc groove 21 and the arc protrusion 31 remain stationary, the rotating member 3 maintains the initial position in contact with the body 1, and the rotating member 3 and the washing liquid box 4 do not rotate; when the dynamic torque is greater than the resistance torque, that is, L1W1>L2W2, because L2=nL1, that is, nW2<W1, the rotating member 3 rotates downward, the arc protrusion 31 rotates relative to the arc groove 21, and the second end 42 rotates upward, from the initial position in contact with the body 1 to the tilted position away from the body 1.
[0050] Alternatively, if Figure 1 As shown, the dispenser also includes a driving member 5, one end of which is connected to the body 1, and the other end of which is against the washing liquid box 4; wherein, when the weight of the washing liquid box 4 is less than a preset value, the driving member 5 applies an upward thrust to the second end 42 to move the second end 42 from the initial position to the tilted position.
[0051] The above embodiment mentioned that when the dynamic torque is greater than the resistance torque, the rotating member 3 rotates downward, the arc protrusion 31 rotates relative to the arc groove 21, and the second end 42 rotates upward. At this time, the driving member 5 applies an upward thrust to the second end 42, which can prevent the friction between the arc protrusion 31 and the arc groove 21 from affecting the rotation of the rotating member 3. The thrust of the driving member 5 can offset the friction between the arc protrusion 31 and the arc groove 21, so that when the weight of the washing liquid box 4 is less than the preset value, the rotational torque on one side of the washing liquid box 4 is less than the rotational torque on one side of the rotating member 3, so that the second end 42 of the washing liquid box 4 can smoothly rotate relative to the main body 1 and move from the initial position to the tilted position.
[0052] Alternatively, if Figure 3 As shown, the driving member 5 includes an elastic portion 51 and a contact portion 52, wherein one end of the elastic portion 51 is connected to the body 1; one end of the contact portion 52 is connected to the other end of the elastic portion 51, and the other end abuts against the bottom wall of the washing liquid box 4; wherein, when the weight of the washing liquid box 4 is less than a preset value, the elastic portion 51 drives the contact portion 52 to elastically deform upward, and the contact portion 52 applies an upward thrust to the second end 42, so that the second end 42 moves from the initial position to the tilted position.
[0053] The elastic part 51 is provided to provide power for the driving member 5. The driving member 5 is located between the washing liquid box 4 and the body 1. When the weight of the washing liquid box 4 is greater than or equal to a preset value, the elastic part 51 is in a compressed state after elastic deformation, and the washing liquid box 4 is in an initial position. When the weight of the washing liquid box 4 is less than the preset value, the elastic part 51 is elastically deformed from the compressed state to recover to the uncompressed state. During the movement of the elastic part 51, the contact part 52 is driven to move upward. The contact part 52 abuts against the bottom wall of the washing liquid box 4, and an upward force is applied to the second end 42 of the washing liquid box 4. The second end 42 is simultaneously subjected to the force generated on the washing liquid box 4 by the rotation of the rotating member 3 and the force generated on the washing liquid box 4 by the contact part 52 after the elastic deformation of the elastic part 51, so that the washing liquid box 4 rotates relative to the body 1. When the user pulls the entire dispenser out of the washing machine, the second end 42 of the washing liquid box 4 moves from the initial position to the tilted position, intuitively prompting the user to replace the washing liquid box 4 so that the user can use the washing machine later.
[0054] In addition, the provision of the elastic portion 51 can reduce the wear between the detergent box 4 and the body 1 and avoid severe collision between the detergent box 4 and the body 1 when the detergent box 4 is fully loaded. The elastic portion 51 can mitigate the collision and protect the detergent box 4 and the body 1.
[0055] Alternatively, if Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the arc protrusion 31 includes an arc surface 311 and a side surface 312, the arc surface 311 is clamped with the arc groove 21, and the side surface 312 is abutted against the main body 1; the rotating member 3 includes a connecting portion 33, one side of the connecting portion 33 is connected to the arc protrusion 31, and the other side is connected to the washing liquid box 4.
[0056] The rotating member 3 is provided with an arc protrusion 31, and the side of the arc protrusion 31 facing the arc groove 21 is an arc surface, and the arc surface is engaged with the arc groove 21, so as to prevent the rotating member 3 from partially or completely separating from the fixed member 2 when the rotating member 3 rotates relative to the fixed member 2, and to avoid affecting the rotation of the washing liquid box 4. The two sides of the arc protrusion 31 facing the body 1 are side surfaces, and the side surfaces are in contact with the body 1, so as to prevent the rotating member 3 from separating from the body 1 when rotating. The arc protrusion 31 is limited between the arc groove 21 and the body 1, and can rotate relative to the fixed member 2 and the body 1, so that the rotating member 3 is more stable during the rotation process. The connecting portion 33 is arranged between the arc protrusion 31 and the washing liquid box 4, and the setting of the connecting portion 33 plays the role of connecting the rotating member 3 and the washing liquid box 4, so as to prevent the rotating member 3 and the washing liquid box 4 from separating during the simultaneous rotation of the rotating member 3 and the washing liquid box 4.
[0057] Alternatively, if Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the first end 41 is provided with an annular groove 411 , and the connecting portion 33 is an annular protrusion 331 , which is inserted into the annular groove 411 to connect the washing liquid box 4 and the rotating member 3 .
[0058] The structural form of the annular groove 411 and the annular protrusion 331 can be annular, or square or other irregular shapes. As long as the annular groove 411 and the annular protrusion 331 are arranged relative to each other and can cooperate with each other to connect the rotating part 3 and the washing liquid box 4, the present application does not limit the structural form of the annular groove 411 and the annular protrusion 331.
[0059] The first end 41 is provided with an annular groove 411, and the connecting part 33 is an annular protrusion 331, and the annular protrusion 331 is inserted into the annular groove 411. Alternatively, the first end 41 is provided with an annular protrusion 331, and the connecting part 33 is an annular groove 411, and the annular protrusion 331 is inserted into the annular groove 411 to connect the washing liquid box 4 and the rotating member 3.
[0060] The setting of the annular groove 411 and the annular protrusion 331 plays a limiting role between the rotating member 3 and the washing liquid box 4. The annular protrusion 331 is inserted into the annular groove 411, and the outer wall of the annular protrusion 331 fits with the inner wall of the annular groove 411, which can prevent the washing liquid box 4 from being displaced in the radial direction of the annular groove 411 relative to the rotating member 3, so as to improve the stability of the connection between the washing liquid box 4 and the rotating member 3.
[0061] Alternatively, if Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, a boss 412 is provided in the middle of the annular groove 411, and the boss 412 is provided with a liquid outlet 413. The rotating member 3 also includes a conduit 34, which is arranged in the internal space surrounded by the annular protrusion 331 and is arranged opposite to the liquid outlet 413; wherein, a liquid storage cavity is provided inside the arc protrusion 31, and when the washing liquid box 4 is connected to the rotating member 3, the annular protrusion 331 is inserted into the annular groove 411, and the conduit 34 is inserted into the liquid outlet 413, and the washing liquid flows into the liquid storage cavity from the conduit 34.
[0062] It can be understood that the boss 412 may be provided with a liquid outlet 413, and a conduit 34 may be provided in the internal space surrounded by the annular protrusion 331, and the conduit 34 may be inserted into the liquid outlet 413; or the boss 412 may be provided with a conduit 34, and a liquid outlet 413 may be provided in the internal space surrounded by the annular protrusion 331, and the conduit 34 may be inserted into the liquid outlet 413, and the conduit 34 cooperates with the liquid outlet 413 to form a flow channel for the washing liquid, and the washing liquid in the washing liquid box 4 flows from the conduit 34 into the liquid storage cavity in the arc protrusion 31 for subsequent use in the washing machine.
[0063] Optionally, the arc protrusion 31 is also provided with an opening so that the washing liquid can flow from the liquid storage cavity into the washing machine.
[0064] The washing liquid flowing into the liquid storage chamber from the washing liquid box 4 flows out of the opening and flows into the washing machine. The opening and closing and the opening degree of the opening can be controlled by a controller, and the opening degree of the opening can be adjusted according to the laundry weight or the selected mode.
[0065] Alternatively, if Figure 4-6 As shown, one of the connecting portion 33 and the washing liquid box 4 is provided with a limiting groove 332 , and the other is provided with a limiting protrusion 43 , and the limiting protrusion 43 is inserted into the limiting groove 332 to fix the washing liquid box 4 and the rotating member 3 .
[0066] It can be understood that the connection part 33 may be provided with a limiting groove 332, the washing liquid box 4 may be provided with a limiting protrusion 43, the limiting protrusion 43 may be inserted into the limiting groove 332, or the connection part 33 may be provided with a limiting protrusion 43, the washing liquid box 4 may be provided with a limiting groove 332, the limiting protrusion 43 may be inserted into the limiting groove 332, thereby fixing the washing liquid box 4 and the rotating member 3. This application takes the connection part 33 provided with a limiting groove 332 and the washing liquid box 4 provided with a limiting protrusion 43 as an example.
[0067] The limiting groove 332 of the connecting portion 33 is arranged on the outer side wall of the annular protrusion 331, and the limiting protrusion 43 of the washing liquid box 4 is arranged on the inner side wall of the annular groove 411. The above embodiment mentioned that the outer side wall of the annular protrusion 331 fits with the inner side wall of the annular groove 411. During the fitting process, the limiting protrusion 43 is inserted into the limiting groove 332 to further fix the washing liquid box 4 and the rotating member 3, so as to prevent the washing liquid box 4 and the rotating member 3 from being displaced or falling off during the rotation process. Moreover, as Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, when the weight of the washing liquid box 4 is less than a preset value, the limiting protrusion 43 of the washing liquid box 4 is taken out along the limiting groove 332 of the rotating member 3, so that the washing liquid box 4 can be replaced more conveniently.
[0068] Alternatively, if Figure 6 As shown, the limiting groove 332 includes a first section 333 and a second section 334. The first section 333 extends inward along the edge of the annular protrusion 331, and the extension direction is the same as the liquid discharge direction; the second section 334 is connected to the first section 333 and a bend is formed at the connection, and extends in a direction perpendicular to the first section 333; wherein the limiting protrusion 43 is inserted into the first section 333 along the liquid discharge direction, and is inserted into the bend, and the washing liquid box 4 is rotated to insert into the second section 334.
[0069] The limiting groove 332 includes a first section 333 and a second section 334 which are perpendicular to each other. The first section 333 is arranged along the liquid discharge direction and extends inward from the edge of the annular protrusion 331 close to the washing liquid box 4 to provide a channel for the limiting protrusion 43 to be inserted. When the limiting protrusion 43 is inserted into the first section 333, the washing liquid box 4 can be prevented from being displaced relative to the rotating member 3 in a direction perpendicular to the liquid discharge direction.
[0070] The second section 334 is arranged in a direction perpendicular to the liquid discharge direction. When the limiting protrusion 43 enters the first section 333 and reaches the bend, the washing liquid box 4 can be rotated and inserted into the second section 334. In this process, the washing liquid box 4 can be prevented from being displaced relative to the rotating member 3 in the liquid discharge direction. The length of the first section 333 is less than or equal to the depth of the annular groove 411, so that the limiting protrusion 43 can be inserted into the second section 334. The arrangement of the first section 333 and the second section 334 makes the fixing between the washing liquid box 4 and the rotating member 3 more stable, and can prevent the washing liquid box 4 and the rotating member 3 from being displaced or falling off during the rotation process.
