[0020] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0021] Please refer to Figures 1-5 As shown, the present invention is a washing machine inner barrel structure for increasing volume, including an inner barrel 6. The inner barrel 6 includes an inner barrel base 61 and an inner barrel enclosing plate 64. A barrel bottom enclosing plate 62 is arranged at the upper end of the inner barrel base 61. The inner barrel enclosing plate 64 is fixedly sleeved on the outer periphery of the upper part of the barrel bottom enclosing plate 62. A plurality of cleaning flanges 67 and barrel wall rib plates 68 are arranged on the inner wall of the inner barrel enclosing plate 64, and the cleaning flanges 67 and the barrel wall rib plates 68 are distributed alternately; an outer barrel body 1 is fixedly connected to the outside of the inner barrel 6. An outer barrel ring 2 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the outer barrel body 1. One end of the inner barrel enclosing plate 64 away from the inner barrel base 61 is fixedly connected to an inner barrel ring 4. The inner barrel ring 4 and the outer barrel ring 2 are connected by a balance ring 3. An installation convex seat 66 is arranged on the inner wall of the inner barrel enclosing plate 64, and a cleaner 5 is installed on the installation convex seat 66.
[0022] In an alternative embodiment, a plurality of outer barrel rib plates 11 distributed in an annular array are arranged on the outer periphery of the outer barrel body 1. An installation support 12 is fixedly arranged on the outer barrel rib plate 11. The lower end of the outer barrel body 1 is fixedly connected to an outer barrel base 13 connected to the inner barrel 6.
[0023] It should be noted that the overall strength of the outer barrel body 1 is improved by setting the outer barrel rib plates 11, and the setting of the installation support 12 facilitates the installation of the outer barrel body 1.
[0024] In an alternative embodiment, a plurality of base rib plates 611 are arranged at the lower end of the inner barrel base 61.
[0025] It should be noted that the overall strength of the inner barrel base 61 is improved by setting the base rib plates 611.
[0026] In an alternative embodiment, a plurality of connecting columns 612 are arranged at the lower end of the inner barrel base 61. A bolt is threadedly connected to the connecting column 612, and the bolt fixedly connects the outer barrel base 13 and the inner barrel base 61.
[0027] It should be noted that the connecting column 612 and the outer barrel base 13 are fixedly installed through the bolt to ensure the stability of the connection between the inner barrel 6 and the outer barrel body 1.

A plurality of grooves are provided on the outer periphery of the bottom surrounding plate 62, and a plurality of surrounding plate ribs 621 are provided in the grooves.
[0029] It should be noted that the provision of the bottom reinforcing ribs 63 improves the overall strength of the inner barrel 6. The provision of the grooves reduces the material used for the entire inner barrel 6. At the same time, the provision of the surrounding plate ribs 621 ensures the improvement of the overall strength under the condition that the wall thickness of the inner barrel 6 is determined.
[0030] In an alternative embodiment, a base flange 65 that cooperates with the bottom surrounding plate 62 is provided at the lower part of the inner barrel surrounding plate 64.
[0031] It should be noted that the base flange 65 plays a role in vertically limiting the bottom surrounding plate 62, ensuring the stability of the connection between the inner barrel surrounding plate 64 and the bottom surrounding plate 62.
[0032] In an alternative embodiment, a connection flange 69 that cooperates with the installation of the inner barrel ring 4 is provided at the upper part of the inner barrel surrounding plate 64.
[0033] It should be noted that by providing the connection flange 69, the installation of the inner barrel ring 4 is supported and limited, ensuring the stability of the connection between the inner barrel ring 4 and the inner barrel surrounding plate 64.
[0034] The working principle of the present utility model: By redesigning the structures of the inner barrel bottom and the outer barrel ring, the volume inside the barrel is increased without changing other components of the washing machine.

The side edge of the bottom surrounding plate 62 of the inner barrel is heightened, and reinforcing ribs are thickened on the outer wall of the bottom surrounding plate 62. At the same time, the wall thickness of the side edge is increased. In this way, while meeting the requirement of increasing the volume, the strength of the inner barrel 6 is not affected. The inner barrel bottom is heightened, the entire inner barrel 6 is lifted upward, and the outer barrel ring 2 is heightened on the outer ring to ensure covering the balance ring 3.
[0035] The above has described a detailed description of an embodiment of the present utility model, but the content described is only the preferred embodiment of the present utility model and cannot be considered as limiting the scope of implementation of the present utility model. All equivalent changes and improvements made within the scope of the application of the present utility model shall still fall within the scope covered by the patent of the present utility model.
