Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0040] The embodiments of the present application provide a dispensing device and a clothing processing device to solve the problem that the detergent box of the existing washing machine is built into the body, and water is only introduced into the detergent box through an inlet valve to rinse the detergent box. Due to the limited flushing force and flushing area of ​​the water flow, the stains remaining in the detergent box gradually breed bacteria, affecting the health of the user. This will be explained in conjunction with the accompanying drawings below.

[0041] The dispensing device provided in the embodiment of the present application is applied to a clothes processing device, which includes a box body 4 and a washing tub 5, and the dispensing device includes a liquid storage bottle 1 and a dispensing pump 2. The liquid storage bottle 1 is detachably and obliquely installed on the outer periphery of the box body 4, and the liquid storage bottle 1 is used to store detergent, and the detergent flows to the bottle mouth of the liquid storage bottle 1 under the action of gravity; the dispensing pump 2 is arranged in the box body 4, and the dispensing pump 2 includes a liquid pumping end 21 and a liquid outlet end 22, and the liquid pumping end 21 passes through the box body 4 and is connected to the bottle mouth of the liquid storage bottle 1, and the liquid outlet end 22 is used to discharge liquid to the washing tub 5.

[0042] The delivery device provided in the embodiment of the present application is shown in FIG. Figure 1 and Figure 2 , Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the installation of the delivery device provided in the embodiment of the present application. Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the connection between the dispensing device and the washing drum provided in an embodiment of the present application. The liquid storage bottle 1 is detachably and obliquely installed on the outer periphery of the housing 4 of the clothing processing device. The detergent in the liquid storage bottle 1 flows to the bottle mouth by its own weight, and the detergent at the bottle mouth is pumped and dispensed to the washing drum 5 through the liquid suction end 21 of the dispensing pump 2. The automatic and accurate dispensing of the detergent is realized, and the liquid storage bottle 1 can be directly disassembled to add detergent or clean the liquid storage bottle 1. The cleaning method is simple and easy to operate, and the liquid storage bottle 1 can be cleaned without any sanitary dead corners to avoid the breeding of bacteria. At the same time, the water inlet valve 3 does not supply water to the liquid storage bottle 1 to avoid the water in the water inlet valve 3 contaminating the liquid storage bottle 1.

[0043] The types of detergents in the present application are not further limited here, for example, they can be washing powder, laundry liquid, softener, disinfectant, etc.

[0044] Optionally, the liquid storage bottle 1 is further provided with a sealing film 11 , which is sealed at the bottle mouth. When the liquid storage bottle 1 is installed in the box body 4 , the sealing film 11 is broken to allow the liquid extraction end 21 to communicate with the bottle mouth of the liquid storage bottle 1 .

[0045] By providing the sealing film 11, when the liquid storage bottle 1 is tilted and picked up, the detergent in the liquid storage bottle 1 is prevented from spilling out from the bottle mouth, and the sealing film 11 is broken only when the liquid storage bottle 1 is installed in the box body 4 to connect the liquid extraction end 21 with the bottle mouth of the liquid storage bottle 1. The method of breaking the sealing film 11 is not further limited here. In some examples, the sealing film 11 can be made of plastic.

[0046] Optionally, see Figure 4 , Figure 4 This is a rear view of the dispensing device provided in the embodiment of the present application, which further includes a water inlet valve 3 and a water inlet pipe 31. One end of the water inlet pipe 31 is connected to the water inlet valve 3, and the other end of the water inlet pipe 31 is connected to the water inlet valve 3, and water is supplied to the washing tub 5. The water supply direction of the water inlet pipe 31 to the washing tub 5 and the liquid discharge direction of the liquid outlet end 22 to the washing tub 5 intersect each other, so that water flushes the detergent.

[0047] That is, the extension direction of the end of the water inlet pipe 31 and the extension direction of the end of the liquid outlet end 22 have an intersection, so that the water sprayed from the water inlet pipe 31 can collide with the detergent on the spray path, and then dissolve the detergent, thereby improving the dissolution effect of the detergent. At the same time, rich foam will be generated during the collision between water and detergent in the air, increasing the foaming rate of the detergent.

[0048] Optionally, the water inlet valve 3 can be installed inside the box 4. The installation method of the water inlet valve 3 is not further limited here. It can be detachably installed inside the box 4 through a mounting seat, or welded inside the box 4. The water inlet valve 3 is connected to the water source.

[0049] Optionally, the other end of the water inlet pipe 31 and the end of the liquid outlet end 22 close to the washing tub 5 are arranged adjacent to each other, that is, the end of the water inlet pipe 31 is adjacent to the end of the liquid outlet end 22, so that the detergent can be flushed by water as soon as it escapes from the liquid outlet end 22 of the dosing pump 2, thereby increasing the foaming time of the detergent and thereby improving the foaming rate of the detergent.

[0050] Optionally, the clothes processing device includes a door seal, and the other end of the water inlet pipe 31 and the end of the liquid outlet end 22 close to the washing tub 5 both pass through the door seal and extend above the front of the washing tub 5 .

[0051] Optionally, the angle between the water inlet direction and the gravity direction is 0° to 30°, and the angle between the liquid outlet direction and the water inlet direction is 10° to 50°. That is, the water inlet direction is roughly vertically downward, and the liquid outlet direction of the liquid outlet end 22 is inclined toward the water inlet pipe 31. Since the water inlet demand of the clothing processing equipment is relatively large, the water inlet direction is set to be roughly vertically downward, which can ensure a short water inlet time, water inlet efficiency, and the flushing effect of water impact on the washing drum 5. The demand for detergent delivery is relatively small, so the liquid outlet direction of the liquid outlet end 22 is inclined toward the water inlet pipe 31, and the impact on the washing time is almost negligible.

[0052] The water inlet direction and the liquid outlet direction are not further limited here. In some examples, the angle between the water inlet direction and the gravity direction can be 0°, and the angle between the liquid outlet direction and the water inlet direction is 10°; in other examples, the angle between the water inlet direction and the gravity direction can be 30°, and the angle between the liquid outlet direction and the water inlet direction is 15°; in other examples, the angle between the water inlet direction and the gravity direction can be 15°, and the angle between the liquid outlet direction and the water inlet direction is 30°.

[0053] Optionally, the liquid storage bottle 1 may include multiple, and correspondingly, the dispensing pump 2 includes multiple liquid extraction ends 21, each liquid extraction end 21 is connected to a liquid storage bottle 1, and the multiple liquid storage bottles 1 are arranged at intervals on the outer periphery of the box body 4, and each liquid storage bottle 1 is used to store a detergent to achieve separate storage of different detergents.

[0054] The number of liquid outlet ends 22 is not further limited here. The liquid outlet end 22 may include multiple or one. When the liquid outlet end 22 includes only one, one or more liquid extraction ends 21 are connected to the liquid outlet end 22; when the liquid outlet end 22 includes multiple, each liquid extraction end 21 is connected to one liquid outlet end 22, so as to realize the separate delivery of each detergent and avoid the detergents from crossing each other on the delivery path.

[0055] Optionally, the dispensing device provided in the embodiment of the present application further includes a liquid outlet pipe, one end of which is connected to the liquid outlet end 22 of the dispensing pump 2 , and the other end of which discharges liquid to the washing tub 5 .

[0056] Optionally, the liquid storage bottle 1 can be made of a transparent material, and a liquid level line is provided on the body of the liquid storage bottle 1. In some examples, the liquid storage bottle 1 can be made of plastic. The number of liquid level lines is not further limited here, and can include a warning line, or multiple scale lines, wherein the warning line is a prompt line when the liquid level is low. When the liquid level in the liquid storage bottle 1 is lower than or equal to the liquid level, the user needs to add detergent to the liquid storage bottle 1. When the liquid level line includes multiple scale lines. Multiple scale lines can be set at intervals, and the intervals between two adjacent scale lines are the same, and the multiple scale lines include a warning line.

[0057] The user can directly observe the liquid level in the liquid storage bottle 1 to decide whether to add detergent. At the same time, since the liquid storage bottle 1 is made of transparent material, it is also convenient to directly observe the stains in the liquid storage bottle 1. When there is visible dirt in the liquid storage bottle 1, it can be cleaned in time.

[0058] As an alternative embodiment, only the side wall of the liquid storage bottle 1 close to the door of the clothing processing device is made of transparent material. In this case, the liquid level line is set on the side wall.
