[0032] The following further describes the embodiments of the present application in detail in conjunction with the drawings and embodiments. The following embodiments are used to illustrate the present application, but cannot be used to limit the scope of the present application.
[0033] In the various specific technical features and each embodiment described in the specific embodiments, without contradiction, they can be combined in any suitable manner. For example, different embodiments can be formed by combining different specific technical features / embodiments. To avoid unnecessary repetition, various possible combination methods of the various specific technical features / embodiments in the present application will not be described separately. In addition, the term "first" is only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance. The present application will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the drawings and specific embodiments.
[0034] In the related art, the cathode and anode of the electrolysis device are arranged at intervals. That is to say, a distance must be reserved between the cathode and the anode. During the process of electrolyzing the aqueous solution between the cathode and the anode, the conduction depends on the ions in the aqueous solution. However, the water quality varies greatly in different regions. For example, the TDS of the water quality in Wuxi is about 150, while in northern regions such as Xinjiang, it is as high as 500; the TDS in Japan is about 80, while in Europe and North America, the TDS is as high as more than 500. TDS (Total Dissolved Solids) refers to the concentration of total dissolved substances in water, mainly reflecting the concentration of calcium, magnesium and other ions in water, and has a good corresponding relationship with the water hardness and conductivity. Exemplarily, the smaller the TDS value, the lower the concentration of calcium, magnesium and other ions in water, and the smaller the conductivity. The water quality difference will lead to two extreme situations. The first situation: the TDS of the aqueous solution is too low, close to pure water, the ions in the aqueous solution are too low to conduct electricity, resulting in the inability of the electrolyzed water device to electrolyze. The second situation: the TDS is too high, the water quality is too hard, and the power of the anode and cathode rises sharply, resulting in short-circuit protection, and the anode and cathode decay rapidly due to scale. Therefore, the TDS difference in water quality leads to unstable electrolysis effect.
[0035] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5 , the first aspect of the embodiment of the present application provides an electrolysis device 100, and the electrolysis device 100 can be used in a laundry treatment device.
[0036] Please continue to refer to Figures 1 to 5 Figures 1 to 5 , the electrolysis device 100 includes an electrode assembly 10 and a clamping member 20. The clamping member 20 forms a clamping space, and the electrode assembly 10 is disposed in the clamping space. The electrode assembly 10 includes electrode sheets 11 and a solid electrolyte 121. At least one electrode sheet 11 is a cathode 111, and at least one electrode sheet 11 is an anode 112. The cathode 111 and the anode 112 are stacked along a first direction, and the solid electrolyte 121 is disposed between the cathode 111 and the anode 112.
[0037] The electrode assembly 10 is used for electrolyzing a fluid. The fluid can be an aqueous solution. In this application, the fluid is taken as an aqueous solution as an example for illustration. The electrode assembly 10 can be used for electrolyzing an aqueous solution to generate substances such as hydroxyl radicals and / or ozone with strong oxidation activity.
[0038] The solid electrolyte 121 is in a solid state and has an ion transport function.
[0039] Principle of the electrode assembly 10 for electrolyzing water: The solid electrolyte 121 is disposed between the cathode 111 and the anode 112. The solid electrolyte 121 separates the cathode 111 and the anode 112, and the solid electrolyte 121 can transfer ions. During the process of the electrode assembly 10 electrolyzing the aqueous solution, water molecules ionize to generate cations and anions, and at least one of the cations and anions can migrate through the solid electrolyte 121. For example, hydrogen ions can migrate through the solid electrolyte 121, and high-concentration cation regions and anion regions are respectively formed on both sides of the solid electrolyte 121 along the first direction. Substances such as hydroxyl radicals and / or ozone with strong oxidation activity are generated on the surface of the anode 112, and hydrogen is generated on the surface of the cathode 111.
[0040] Ozone can sterilize or inhibit bacteria on clothes, etc. Ozone can also oxidize and destroy the chromophore groups of dye molecules that have dissociated into the water to decolorize the dyes, prevent the dissociated dyes from staining light-colored clothes and causing color bleeding, and continue to react to decompose the dye molecules into harmless carbon dioxide, water, and / or inorganic salts, without secondary pollution, playing a role in preventing color bleeding.
[0041] Hydroxyl radicals (·OH) have an extremely high oxidation potential (2.80 eV), and their oxidation ability is extremely strong. They can sterilize or inhibit bacteria on clothes, etc. Hydroxyl radicals can undergo a rapid chain reaction with most organic pollutants, oxidize harmful substances into carbon dioxide, water, or inorganic salts without selectivity, without secondary pollution. Hydroxyl radicals can also oxidize and destroy the dissociated dyes to decolorize the dyes, playing a role in preventing color bleeding.
[0042] The cathode 111 generates hydrogen microbubbles. Since the diameter of the microbubbles is very small, usually not greater than 50 μm (micrometers), the hydrogen microbubbles can well enter the interior of the clothing fibers during the washing process. Through the actions of microbubble bursting, adsorption and floating, etc., the microbubbles circulate and scour the clothing, assisting the detergent to remove dirt such as sebum, grease, and tiny dust accumulated inside the clothing fibers, and can improve the washing ratio.
[0043] It should be noted that the cathode 111 and the anode 112 being stacked along the first direction means that the anode 112 and the cathode 111 are arranged substantially face to face. Exemplarily, please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 , the cathode 111, the anode 112, and the solid electrolyte 121 are all substantially in a flat plate structure. The anode 112, the solid electrolyte 121, and the cathode 111 are stacked in sequence along the first direction. That is to say, the anode 112, the solid electrolyte 121, and the cathode 111 are arranged substantially parallel to each other face to face. In this way, without the anode 112 and the cathode 111 contacting and short - circuiting, the distance between the two electrodes can be reduced as much as possible, reducing energy consumption and improving the electrolysis efficiency of the electrolysis device 100.
[0044] The clamping space has a limiting and fixing effect on the electrode assembly 10. Exemplarily, the clamping member 20 can be an integral structure, and a clamping space is formed inside the clamping member 20. In this way, it is convenient to assemble the electrode assembly 10 with the clamping member 20, and the electrode assembly 10 can be prevented from loosening and falling off, thereby improving the connection stability between the electrode assembly 10 and the clamping member 20.
[0045] For the electrolysis device 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application, on the one hand, the solid electrolyte 121 is arranged between the anode 112 and the cathode 111, which can prevent the anode 112 and the cathode 111 from contacting and short - circuiting; the solid electrolyte 121 can transfer ions and can conduct electricity without relying on the ions in the aqueous solution, thus avoiding the influence of water quality on the power of the electrode plate 11. On the other hand, the electrode assembly 10 is arranged in the clamping space, and the assembly method is simple, which can effectively prevent the electrode assembly 10 from loosening and falling off, thereby improving the connection stability between the electrode assembly 10 and the clamping member 20.
[0046] In some other embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 , two clamping members 20 are arranged at intervals along the first direction, and a clamping space is defined between the two clamping members 20. In this way, the electrode assembly 10 can be clamped between the two clamping members 20, improving the connection stability between the electrode assembly 10 and the clamping member 20.
[0047] The second aspect of the embodiment of the present application provides a clothing treatment device, including a clothing treatment cavity and the electrolysis device 100 in any embodiment of the present application, and the fluid after electrolysis of the electrode assembly 10 enters the clothing treatment cavity.
[0048] The laundry treatment chamber can be used to hold laundry.
[0049] In the laundry treatment device provided by the embodiments of the present application, after the aqueous solution is electrolyzed by the electrolysis device 100, substances such as hydroxyl radicals and / or ozone are generated. The electrolyzed aqueous solution enters the laundry treatment chamber. Substances with strong oxidation activity such as hydroxyl radicals and / or ozone play a role in sterilizing and disinfecting the laundry and preventing color bleeding. Hydrogen microbubbles can assist the detergent in removing dirt such as sebum, grease, and fine dust accumulated inside the laundry fibers, and can improve the washing ratio.
[0050] Exemplarily, the laundry treatment device has a first liquid path communicating with the laundry treatment chamber. The first liquid path can communicate with a water source to supply water to the laundry treatment chamber. In this way, the laundry treatment device has a laundry washing function. The electrolysis device 100 is arranged on the first liquid path to electrolyze the aqueous solution flowing into the laundry treatment chamber.
[0051] The water source can be a tap water source or the circulating water of the laundry treatment device. That is to say, the aqueous solution can be tap water. Tap water does not contain impurities such as laundry lint and hair, which can avoid the attachment of impurities such as lint to the electrode assembly 10 and improve the service life of the electrolysis device 100.
[0052] The functions of the laundry treatment device are not limited. Exemplarily, in addition to the washing function, the laundry treatment device can also have a drying function. The drying function can be used to dry the laundry.
[0053] The laundry treatment device can be a washing machine or a washing and drying integrated machine, etc. A washing and drying integrated machine is a laundry treatment device that integrates the washing function and the drying function.
[0054] The laundry treatment device can include a cylinder assembly. The axis of the cylinder assembly can extend in the horizontal direction. The laundry treatment device in this embodiment is also called a drum-type laundry treatment device. The axis of the cylinder assembly can extend in the vertical direction. The laundry treatment device in this embodiment is also called a pulsator-type laundry treatment device.
[0055] In some embodiments, the cylinder assembly includes a rotatable inner cylinder. The inner cylinder has a loading and unloading opening, and the loading and unloading opening can face forward. The inner cylinder can be used to place and process the laundry. The user puts the laundry into or takes out the inner cylinder through the loading and unloading opening from the front. The inner cylinder can rotate. For example, the laundry, the aqueous solution, the detergent, etc. rotate with the inner cylinder. In this way, the laundry continuously changes its posture inside the inner cylinder, and the fluids such as the aqueous solution and the detergent change their flow directions with the inner cylinder.
[0056] In some embodiments, the inner cylinder can be generally in the shape of a hollow cylinder.
[0057] In some embodiments, referring to the figure, the cylinder assembly includes an outer tub, and an inner cylinder can be disposed in the outer tub. The outer tub can be used to hold water, and the inner cylinder is used to hold clothes. In this embodiment, water is held in the outer tub, and the inner cylinder can also be referred to as a perforated inner cylinder. Fluids can flow between the spaced space between the outer tub and the inner cylinder and the space inside the inner cylinder through the flow holes of the inner cylinder.
[0058] In some embodiments, the outer tub can be generally in the shape of a hollow cylinder.
[0059] In some embodiments, the inner cylinder holds water by itself and can also be called a non-perforated inner cylinder. An outer tub can be provided outside the non-perforated inner cylinder, or it can be not provided.
[0060] It can be understood that in some embodiments, the cylinder assembly can only have an inner cylinder without the above-mentioned outer tub. In this embodiment, the inner cylinder is a non-perforated inner cylinder and can hold water by itself. The inner cylinder can be of a single-cylinder structure. That is to say, the laundry treatment device only has one cylinder, the inner cylinder.
[0061] In some embodiments, the laundry treatment device includes a cabinet, the cylinder assembly is disposed in the cabinet, and the cabinet is provided with an opening communicating with the inside of the cylinder assembly.
[0062] In some embodiments, the cabinet can be generally in the shape of a hexahedron, for example, a cube shape or a cuboid shape.
[0063] In some embodiments, the laundry treatment device includes a door body and a door seal ring. The door body is used to selectively open or close the opening of the cabinet. The axis of the cylinder assembly extends in the horizontal direction, and the door seal ring can be used to seal the gap between the cylinder assembly and the opening of the cabinet. The space surrounded by the door seal ring and the space inside the inner cylinder can form a laundry treatment chamber.
[0064] It should be noted that the extending direction of the axis of the door seal ring is the same as the extending direction of the axis of the cylinder assembly, and the axis of the door seal ring can extend in the horizontal direction.
[0065] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 4 , at least one electrode sheet 11 contacts the solid electrolyte 121. In one embodiment, the cathode 111 contacts the solid electrolyte 121. In one embodiment, the anode 112 contacts the solid electrolyte 121. In one embodiment, both the cathode 111 and the anode 112 contact the solid electrolyte 121.
[0066] In this embodiment, at least one electrode sheet 11 contacting the solid electrolyte 121 can reduce the distance between the cathode 111 and the anode 112, improve the working efficiency of the electrode assembly 10, and reduce energy consumption.
[0067] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 3, the clamping member 20 includes a clamping plate 21, and the clamping plates 21 of the two clamping members 20 are located on both sides of the electrode assembly 10 along the first direction.
[0068] Exemplarily, please continue to refer to Figure 3 , for ease of description, the clamping plates 21 of the two clamping members 20 are respectively defined as a first clamping plate 21b and a second clamping plate 21c, and the first clamping plate 21b, the electrode assembly 10, and the second clamping plate 21c are stacked along the first direction. For example, both the first clamping plate 21b and the second clamping plate 21c can be in a flat plate structure. In this way, the contact area between the electrode assembly 10 and the clamping member 20 can be increased, and the first clamping plate 21b and the second clamping plate 21c can effectively clamp the electrode assembly 10, thereby enhancing the connection stability between the electrode assembly 10 and the clamping member 20.
[0069] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the clamping plate 21 is formed with a liquid passage notch 21a. The liquid passage notch 21a is used for the flow of a fluid such as a water liquid, and the water liquid can flow through the liquid passage notch 21a to contact the electrode sheet 11.
[0070] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the electrode sheet 11 is formed with a through hole 11a that penetrates through two sides of the electrode sheet 11 along the first direction. Taking a plane perpendicular to the first direction as the projection plane, the projection of the through hole 11a is within the projection range of the liquid passage notch 21a. That is to say, the through hole 11a communicates with the liquid passage notch 21a. In this way, it is possible to prevent the clamping plate 21 from blocking the flow of the water liquid to the electrode sheet 11 and the solid electrolyte 121, so that the fluid can smoothly contact the electrode assembly 10.
[0071] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 2 , the clamping plate 21 includes a frame 211 and a reinforcing rib 212. The frame 211 encloses to form an avoidance space 211a, and the reinforcing rib 212 is arranged in the avoidance space 211a and connected to the frame 211. The reinforcing rib 212 divides the avoidance space 211a into a plurality of liquid passage notches 21a. The frame 211 and the reinforcing rib 212 can contact the electrode sheet 11 to play a role in clamping the electrode assembly 10. The avoidance space 211a can be used for the flow of the water liquid so that the water liquid can contact the electrode sheet 11 through the avoidance space 211a.
[0072] In this embodiment, the frame 211 can abut against the peripheral part of the electrode sheet 11, so that the peripheral part of the electrode sheet 11 is subjected to a clamping force. The reinforcing rib 212 is used to optimize the stress distribution and transmission, play a role in strengthening the strength of the frame 211, and can also abut against the middle part of the electrode sheet 11 to improve the clamping effect.
[0073] Exemplarily, please continue to refer to Figure 2, the clamping plate 21 includes at least two intersecting reinforcing ribs 212. The two reinforcing ribs 212 divide the avoidance space 211a into a plurality of liquid - passing notches 21a with substantially the same area. In this way, the flow rate and velocity of the fluid passing through each liquid - passing notch 21a are substantially the same, enabling the fluid to flow stably and uniformly. In addition, the frame 211 and the two reinforcing ribs 212 together form a hollow structure. The clamping plate 21 with a hollow structure is easy to process and is beneficial to the stability of its own structure.
[0074] It should be noted that in the embodiments of the present application, "a plurality of" refers to a quantity including two or more.
[0075] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the clamping member 20 includes a fastening member 22 and a fixing ear 23 connected to the clamping plate 21. The fastening member 22 passes through the fixing ears 23 of the two clamping members 20. The two clamping members 20 are assembled and fixed by the fixing ears 23 and the fastening member 22, which is convenient for operation and improves the assembly efficiency.
[0076] The type of the fastening member 22 is not limited. For example, the fastening member 22 can be a bolt or the like.
[0077] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the fixing ear 23 is connected to the periphery of the clamping plate 21. Exemplarily, the fixing ear 23 is connected to the periphery of the frame 211. In this way, the fixing ear 23 does not block the liquid - passing notch 21a, and the fluid can flow smoothly through the liquid - passing notch 21a and contact the electrode assembly 10, thereby improving the electrolysis efficiency of the electrolysis device 100. In addition, there is a large installation space at the periphery of the frame 211, which is convenient for assembling the two clamping members 20 and improves the assembly efficiency.
[0078] In one embodiment, please continue to refer to Figure 2 , a plurality of fixing ears 23 are distributed at intervals along the circumferential direction of the clamping plate 21, and the fixing ears 23 of the two clamping members 20 correspond to each other one by one. In this way, the connection stability between the two clamping members 20 can be further enhanced, and the two clamping members 20 can be prevented from shifting and misaligning.
[0079] In some embodiments, the electrolysis device 100 includes an insulating member 30, and an insulating member 30 is arranged between the fixing ears 23 of the two clamping members 20. Exemplarily, please refer to Figure 1 , the insulating member 30 is sleeved on the part of the fastening member 22 located between the two fixing ears 23. In this way, on the one hand, the insulating member 30 can prevent the two clamping members 20 from contacting or colliding, playing an insulating protection role for the electrolysis device 100 and preventing the two clamping members 20 from having a contact short - circuit phenomenon. On the other hand, the fastening member 22 has a limiting effect on the insulating member 30, preventing the insulating member 30 from loosening and falling off and enhancing the stability of the insulating member 30.
[0080] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the clamping member 20 includes a power connection portion 24, and the power connection portion 24 is used to connect to a power supply circuit. Exemplarily, the power connection portion 24 is connected to the clamping plate 21. The power connection portion 24 conducts electric energy to the electrode plate 11 through the clamping plate 21. That is to say, the electric energy of the power supply circuit is conducted to the electrode plate 11 through the clamping member 20, and the electrode plate 11 is electrically connected to the external power supply circuit through the clamping member 20. The power connection portions 24 of the two clamping members 20 are respectively electrically connected to the positive and negative poles of the power supply circuit to form an electric circuit.
[0081] Exemplarily, in some embodiments, the clamping plate 21 and the power connection portion 24 are of an integrally formed structure. That is to say, the clamping member 20 can be of an integrally formed structure. In this way, the process of separately manufacturing the power connection portion 24 can be reduced, and the production efficiency can be improved.
[0082] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the power connection portion 24 is connected to the periphery of the clamping plate 21. Exemplarily, the power connection portion 24 is connected to the periphery of the frame 211. In this way, the power connection portion 24 does not block the liquid passing notch 21a, and the fluid can flow smoothly through the liquid passing notch 21a and contact the electrode assembly 10, thereby improving the electrolysis efficiency of the electrolysis device 100.
[0083] In addition, the power connection portion 24 is spaced apart from the fixing ear 23, which can also reduce the probability of the external wire touching other parts and reduce potential safety hazards.
[0084] In one embodiment, please continue to refer to Figure 2 , with the plane perpendicular to the first direction as the projection plane, the projections of the power connection portions 24 of the two clamping members 20 do not overlap. That is to say, the projections of the two power connection portions 24 are spaced apart. In this way, the two power connection portions 24 are relatively far apart, avoiding contact short circuit between the two power connection portions 24 caused by water impact or other acting forces.
[0085] In some embodiments, the electrode plate 11 is in conductive contact with the clamping member 20. That is to say, the clamping member 20 can conduct current, and the current is transmitted to the electrode plate 11 through the clamping member 20 to energize the electrode plate 11. In this way, on the one hand, there is a large contact area between the electrode plate 11 and the clamping member 20, which can reduce power loss and improve the conductive efficiency. On the other hand, it can also reduce the additional components required for energizing the electrode plate 11 and reduce the production cost.
[0086] The clamping member 20 includes, but is not limited to, a metal part, which has a low resistance and good electrical conductivity.
[0087] Both the cathode 111 and the anode 112 can be prepared from materials well known in the art that can be used for electrolyzing water.
[0088] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 6 , the electrode assembly 10 includes a support skeleton 122, and a solid electrolyte 121 is disposed on the support skeleton 122. The solid electrolyte 121 covers at least one side surface of the support skeleton 122 along a first direction.
[0089] Exemplarily, in some embodiments, the solid electrolyte 121 covers one side surface of the support skeleton 122 along the first direction. In some other embodiments, the solid electrolyte 121 covers two side surfaces of the support skeleton 122 along the first direction. In some other embodiments, the solid electrolyte 121 covers all outer surfaces of the support skeleton 122.
[0090] In this embodiment, the solid electrolyte 121 is used for at least one of anions and cations to migrate. The support skeleton 122 is used to enhance the mechanical strength of the solid electrolyte 121. The solid electrolyte 121 is not easily punctured, which is beneficial to reducing the risk of internal short circuit. In addition, the solid electrolyte 121 is not easily damaged during the assembly process of the electrolysis device 100.
[0091] It can be understood that the number of layers of the solid electrolyte 121 can be one layer or multiple layers. The multiple layers include two layers and more than two layers. For example, two layers or three layers, etc.
[0092] In some embodiments, the solid electrolyte 121 and the support skeleton 122 can be of an integral structure. That is to say, the solid electrolyte 121 can adhere to the support skeleton 122 by its own acting force.
[0093] In some embodiments, the solid electrolyte 121 and the support skeleton 122 can be connected by fasteners.
