[0044] Embodiments of the present utility model will be described in detail below. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, where the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present utility model and should not be construed as limiting the present utility model.

[0045] In the related art, existing clothing treatment devices (such as clothes dryers) can filter clothing lint, bringing a good experience to users. However, during the filtering process, some lint will still adhere to the surface of the heat exchanger or the filter screen. The accumulated adhered lint will affect the normal operation of the heat exchanger over time. In the existing technology, a separate cleaning pump body and a cleaning pipeline are provided to drive the condensed water to wash the lint, and a separate drainage pump is provided to discharge the condensed water outward, increasing the cost of the pump body and occupying a large space. How to simplify the pump body structure so that the pump body can achieve self-cleaning function and condensed water discharge function by itself and ensure the drainage efficiency has become an urgent problem to be solved in this field.

[0046] The following refers to Figures 1 - 15 Describe a clothing treatment device according to an embodiment of the present utility model.

[0047] The clothing treatment device 1 according to the present utility model includes: a base 10 on which a water collection channel is formed; a water storage box 18; a heat exchanger and / or a filtering device; a pump body 11 in which a drainage cavity is formed. An inlet 113 that communicates the drainage cavity with the water collection channel and a first outlet 111 and a second outlet 112 that communicate the drainage cavity with the outside are formed on the pump body 11. The pump body 11 is adapted to lead the condensed water in the drainage cavity to the heat exchanger and / or the filtering device through the first outlet 111; a valve assembly is disposed downstream of the second outlet 112 and can selectively conduct the second outlet 112 and the water storage box 18 unidirectionally to lead the condensed water in the inlet cavity to the water storage box 18.

[0048] Specifically, a base 10 is designed at the bottom of the laundry treatment device 1. A water collection channel is provided on the base 10, and the condensed water accumulated on the base 10 can be collected into the water collection channel, preventing the condensed water from flowing to components such as the heat exchanger and causing safety problems. A drainage cavity is formed inside the pump body 11. An inlet 113 that connects the drainage cavity to the water collection channel is formed on the pump body 11. The pump body 11 can extract condensed water from the water collection channel through the inlet 113 and can selectively discharge it from the first outlet 111 or the second outlet 112. Among them, the pump body 11 can discharge the condensed water to the surface of the heat exchanger or to the filtering structure in front of the heat exchanger through the first outlet 111. The heat exchanger can be configured as an evaporator, and the filtering structure can be a filter screen. The pump body 11 can also discharge the condensed water to the filter screen structure in front of the laundry treatment device 1 through the first outlet 111 to clean the lint, preventing excessive accumulation of lint from affecting the performance of the heat exchanger and the filtering structure. The valve assembly is arranged on the downstream side of the second outlet 112. The valve assembly can selectively conduct the second outlet 112 and the water storage box 18 unidirectionally, ensuring that the condensed water can only flow into the water box unidirectionally and cannot flow back. This not only ensures the smooth discharge of the condensed water but also prevents external air from entering the interior of the pump body 11 through the second outlet 112 when the pump body 11 discharges water through the first outlet 111, thereby affecting the internal pressure of the drainage cavity and ensuring the drainage capacity of the pump body 11. Among them, the water storage box 18 is detachably arranged on the base 10 and is suitable for collecting condensed water. The water storage box 18 can be removed after being filled with condensed water, and reinstalled on the base 10 after pouring out the condensed water, thereby discharging the condensed water accumulated in the water collection channel.

[0049] According to the laundry treatment device 1 of the present utility model, by providing a pump body 11 to extract the condensed water in the water collection channel, and selectively discharging it through the first outlet 111 to the heat exchanger and / or the filtering device to clean the lint, the self-cleaning function is realized. The condensed water in the water collection channel can be selectively discharged to the water storage box 18 through the second outlet 112 to realize the condensed water discharge function. By integrating the self-cleaning function and the condensed water discharge function on the pump body 11, the number of pump bodies 11 is reduced, the structure of the pump body 11 is simplified, facilitating the installation and arrangement of the pump body 11, and by providing a valve assembly downstream of the second outlet 112, the drainage efficiency of the pump body 11 is improved.

[0050] According to some embodiments of the present utility model, the first outlet 111 and the second outlet 112 are respectively open towards the height direction of the pump body 11.

[0051] Specifically, the first outlet 111 and the second outlet 112 are respectively open towards the height direction of the pump body 11, providing greater flexibility for the overall layout of the pump body 11. Among them, the first outlet 111 and the second outlet 112 can be arranged on the top of the pump body 11 and open towards the height direction. When the pump body 11 is arranged at the bottom of the cleaning device, it is more convenient for the pump body 11 to communicate with related components through the first outlet 111 and the second outlet 112. When the pump body 11 drains water through the first outlet 111 or the second outlet 112, it is beneficial to reduce the water flow resistance, enabling the condensed water to be discharged more quickly.

[0052] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the valve assembly is configured as a solenoid valve or a check valve 12.

[0053] Specifically, the solenoid valve has the advantages of precise control, fast response speed, high reliability, etc. Through programming or remote control, precise control of the solenoid valve can be achieved, thus realizing automation and intelligence. The check valve 12 has a simple structure, low cost, and convenient maintenance. It does not require external energy to control the switch and can realize the switch action only relying on the flowing pressure of the medium itself, which is beneficial to reducing costs.

[0054] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the valve assembly includes: a valve housing, a valve body cavity is formed inside the valve housing, the valve housing is provided with a water inlet part 171 and a water outlet part 172 communicating with the valve body cavity, the water inlet part 171 is connected to the second outlet 112, and the water outlet part 172 communicates the valve body cavity with the outside; a valve core 14, the valve core 14 is movably arranged inside the valve body cavity to make the valve housing conduct unidirectionally from the water inlet part 171 to the water outlet part 172.

[0055] Specifically, a valve body cavity is formed inside the valve housing, the valve core 14 is movably arranged inside the valve body cavity, one end of the water inlet part 171 is connected to the second outlet 112 of the pump body 11 for receiving the condensed water discharged from the second outlet 112, and the other end extends into the valve body cavity to introduce the condensed water into the valve body cavity. One end of the water outlet part 172 communicates with the valve body cavity for leading out the condensed water processed by the valve core 14 to the outside, and the other end extends to be connected to the water storage box 18. The valve core 14 is movably arranged inside the valve body cavity. By changing the position of the valve core 14, the communication between the water inlet part 171 and the valve body cavity can be selectively conducted or closed, thereby controlling the flow of the condensed water. When the valve core 14 is in the open position, the channel between the water inlet part 171 and the valve body cavity is opened, and the condensed water can smoothly flow from the water inlet part 171 into the valve body cavity and be discharged through the water outlet part 172. When the valve core 14 is in the closed position, the channel between the water inlet part 171 and the valve body cavity is blocked, and the condensed water cannot flow into the valve body cavity, thus achieving the effect of unidirectional conduction and avoiding external air from entering the second outlet 112 through the water inlet part 171 and affecting the internal pressure of the pump body 11.

[0056] According to some embodiments of the present utility model, the valve housing includes an upper valve housing 131 and a lower valve housing 132, and the upper valve housing 131 and the lower valve housing 132 are detachably connected to the water inlet part and the water outlet part.

[0057] Specifically, the valve housing is designed as two parts, namely the detachable upper valve housing 131 and the lower valve housing 132, which is convenient for assembling, maintaining and replacing the valve assembly. When it is necessary to clean the valve body cavity, replace the valve core 14 or check other components, the upper valve housing 131 or the lower valve housing 132 can be conveniently disassembled without replacing the entire valve assembly, which is beneficial to reducing costs. Among them, the upper valve housing 131 and the lower valve housing 132 are detachably connected through connection methods such as threaded connection and snap connection, and the disassembly and assembly cooperation is simple.

[0058] At least part of the water inlet part 171 extends into the valve body cavity after passing through the lower valve housing 132. At least part of the water inlet part 171 is located outside the lower valve housing 132 and is connected to the second outlet 112 of the pump body 11. At least another part of the water inlet part 171 passes through the lower valve housing 132 and enters the valve body cavity to introduce condensed water into the valve body cavity and prevent the condensed water from leaking. At least part of the water outlet part 172 extends through the upper valve housing 131 into the valve body cavity, and the other part is located outside the upper valve housing 131 and is connected to the water storage box 18 to export the condensed water processed by the valve core 14 and ensure the airtightness of the valve assembly to prevent the condensed water from leaking.

[0059] According to some embodiments of the present utility model, a first abutting surface 1311 is formed on one side of the upper valve housing 131 facing the lower valve housing 132, and a second abutting surface 1322 is formed on one side of the lower valve housing 132 facing the upper valve housing 131. A first abutting rib 151 is arranged in a surrounding manner on one of the first abutting surface 1311 and the second abutting surface 1322, and a first sealing member 161 arranged in a surrounding manner and cooperating with the first abutting rib 151 is arranged on the other.

[0060] As Figures 5 to 12As shown, on one side of the upper valve housing 131 facing the lower valve housing 132, a first abutting surface 1311 is formed, and on one side of the lower valve housing 132 facing the upper valve housing 131, a second abutting surface 1322 is formed. The first abutting surface 1311 and the second abutting surface 1322 are in contact with each other when the valve housings are connected. To improve the sealing effect and prevent condensate leakage, a first abutting rib 151 is disposed around one of the abutting surfaces (such as the first abutting surface 1311). The first abutting rib 151 can be a raised annular or strip-like structure for increasing the contact area and sealing performance of the abutting surface; and a first sealing member 161 that cooperates with the first abutting rib 151 is disposed on the other abutting surface (such as the second abutting surface 1322). The first sealing member 161 can be made of an elastic material such as rubber or silica gel, so that the first sealing member 161 can closely fit on the first abutting rib 151 to form an effective sealing structure. When the upper valve housing 131 is connected to the lower valve housing 132, the first abutting surface 1311 and the second abutting surface 1322 are in close contact. At the same time, the first sealing member 161 is compressed and deformed by the first abutting rib 151 and closely fits on the first abutting rib 151, thereby forming a sealing structure between the upper valve housing 131 and the lower valve housing 132, which can effectively prevent condensate from leaking out from the connection of the valve housings and ensure the sealing performance of the valve assembly and the overall performance of the device.

[0061] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the valve core 14 includes: a pivoting portion 141 pivotally connected to the upper valve housing 131; and a valve core body 142 connected to the pivoting portion 141 and adapted to close the water inlet portion 171 under the drive of the pivoting portion 141; wherein, the extending direction of the pivoting portion 141 is orthogonal to the extending direction of the water inlet portion 171.

[0062] Specifically, the pivoting portion 141 is pivotally connected to the upper valve housing 131. The pivoting portion 141 is connected to the valve core body 142. The valve core body 142 can swing around the pivoting portion 141 within a certain range to achieve the opening and closing control of the water inlet portion 171. The pivoting portion 141 can be connected to the upper valve housing 131 through structures such as a pin shaft and a hinge to ensure the stable and flexible movement of the valve core 14. When the pivoting portion 141 swings, the valve core body 142 will move accordingly, thereby changing the position of the valve core body 142 relative to the water inlet portion 171. When a gap is formed between the valve core body 142 and the pipe orifice of the water inlet portion 171, the water inlet portion 171 is in an open state, and the condensed water can flow smoothly into the valve body cavity; when the valve core body 142 rotates to close the pipe orifice of the water inlet portion 171, the condensed water cannot flow into the valve body cavity. The extending direction of the pivoting portion 141 is orthogonal to the extending direction of the water inlet portion 171, which can enable the valve core 14 to quickly open or close the water inlet portion 171 under an external force. When it is necessary to discharge the condensed water into the water storage box 18, the pivoting portion 141 of the valve core 14 will drive the valve core body 142 to rotate to an appropriate position to conduct the water inlet portion 171 with the valve body cavity. The condensed water flows out from the second outlet 112 of the pump body 11, enters the valve body cavity through the water inlet portion 171, and then is discharged to the water storage box 18 through the water outlet portion 172. When it is not necessary to discharge the condensed water, the pivoting portion 141 will drive the valve core body 142 to rotate to a closed position to prevent the condensed water from flowing into the valve body cavity and block the external gas from flowing into the pump body 11 through the second outlet 112. Through the rotational movement of the pivoting portion 141, the rapid and precise opening and closing control of the water inlet portion 171 can be achieved, with a simple structure and convenient operation.

[0063] According to some embodiments of the present invention, a valve core installation groove 1321 is provided on the lower valve housing 132. The pivoting portion 141 is pivotally arranged in the valve core installation groove 1321, and a second anti-abutment rib 152 is arranged in the valve core installation groove 1321; the valve assembly further includes: an elastic member 143, the elastic member 143 is arranged on at least a part of the outer periphery of the pivoting portion 141 and abuts against the second anti-abutment rib 152, and the elastic member 143 is adapted to push the valve core body 142 to abut against the end of the water inlet portion 171 to seal the water inlet portion 171.

[0064] Specifically, a valve core installation groove 1321 is provided on the valve housing for installing and fixing the pivoting portion 141 of the valve core 14. A second abutting rib 152 is provided in the valve core installation groove 1321. The second abutting rib 152 can be a protruding flanging structure for interacting with the elastic member 143. The elastic member 143 is disposed on at least a part of the outer periphery of the pivoting portion 141 and abuts against the second abutting rib 152. The elastic member 143 can be configured as an elastic structure such as a spring, and the elastic member 143 can generate a certain elastic force. Under the action of the elastic member 143, when the valve core 14 is in the closed state, the elastic member 143 will push the valve core body 142 into close contact with the end of the water inlet portion 171, thereby realizing the sealing of the water inlet portion 171. This sealing method is simple and reliable, and can effectively prevent condensed water from leaking out of the water inlet portion 171 when the valve core 14 is closed. After the condensed water discharge ends, the valve core body 142 closes the pipe orifice of the water inlet portion 171 again under the action of the elastic member 143, preventing external gas from flowing into the second outlet 112 and ensuring that the internal pressure of the pump body 11 is not affected.

[0065] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the valve assembly further includes: a second seal 162, which is disposed on the side of the valve core body 142 facing the water inlet portion 171 and is adapted to seal the water inlet portion 171 when the valve core body 142 abuts against the end of the water inlet portion 171.

[0066] Specifically, the valve assembly further includes a second seal 162. The second seal 162 is disposed on the side of the valve core body 142 facing the water inlet portion 171, that is, when the valve core body 142 abuts against the end of the water inlet portion 171, the second seal 162 will be located between the valve core body 142 and the end of the water inlet portion 171 to further improve the sealing performance of the water inlet portion 171 in the closed state. The second seal 162 can be configured as an elastic material such as rubber, and can closely fit between the end of the water inlet portion 171 and the valve core body 142 to form an additional sealing layer, which can effectively prevent condensed water from leaking out of the tiny gap between the water inlet portion 171 and the valve core body 142 when the valve core 14 is closed. When the valve core 14 needs to close the water inlet portion 171, the elastic member 143 will push the valve core body 142 to gradually approach the end of the water inlet portion 171 and simultaneously compress the second seal 162. As the valve core body 142 comes into close contact with the end of the water inlet portion 171, the second seal 162 will also be completely compressed and fit between the valve core body 142 and the end of the water inlet portion 171 to form a reliable sealing interface, which can effectively prevent the leakage of condensed water and ensure the sealing performance of the valve assembly in the closed state.

[0067] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the end of the water inlet portion 171 forms a mating end face 1711 that mates with the valve core body 142, and the mating end face 1711 is inclined towards the axis of the upper valve housing 131 in a direction away from the pivoting portion 141.

[0068] Specifically, the mating end face 1711 of the water inlet part 171 is inclined towards the axis of the upper valve housing 131 in a direction away from the pivoting part 141. This inclined design helps to form a better sealing effect when the valve core body 142 abuts against the end of the water inlet part 171. When the valve core body 142 moves towards the end of the water inlet part 171 under the action of the elastic member 143, it gradually approaches and comes into close contact with the mating end face 1711 along the inclined direction of the mating end face 1711. Since the mating end face 1711 is inclined, a component force acting inward will naturally be generated during the contact process of the valve core body 142, and this component force helps to press the valve core body 142 more tightly against the end of the water inlet part 171, thereby enhancing the sealing effect. Moreover, when the pump body 11 drains water through the second outlet 112, the water flows into the valve body cavity through the water inlet part 171. By setting the mating end face 1711 of the water inlet part 171 as an inclined plane, it is more convenient for the water flow to lift the valve core body 142 and facilitate the circulation of the condensed water.

[0069] According to some embodiments of the present invention, a water storage chamber is formed inside the water storage box 18, and the one-way valve 12 is arranged in the water storage box 18; a connecting pipe 184, the connecting pipe 184 is connected to the second outlet 112 and can be selectively connected to the water storage box 18.

[0070] Specifically, a water storage chamber is formed inside the water storage box 18 for collecting and storing the condensed water discharged from the water collecting channel. The one-way valve 12 can be arranged at the top of the water storage box 18, which is beneficial for the condensed water to flow smoothly into the water storage box 18 and prevent external gas from entering the water storage chamber and affecting the water storage of the water storage box 18. The condensed water flows out from the second outlet 112 of the pump body 11 and enters the water storage box 18 through the connecting pipe 184. The connecting pipe 184 can be configured as a flexible pipe to adapt to different installation positions and angles. The selectively connectable relationship between the connecting pipe 184 and the water storage box 18 allows the connecting pipe 184 to be disconnected from the water storage box 18 and the condensed water in the water storage box 18 to be poured out when the device does not need to drain water or when the water storage box 18 reaches the capacity limit; when draining water is required, the connecting pipe 184 is reconnected to the water storage box 18.

[0071] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the water storage box 18 includes: a water box body 181, a water storage chamber is formed inside the water box body 181, a drain port 182 is arranged at the top of the water box body 181, and the drain port 182 can be selectively connected to the connecting pipe 184; an exhaust pipe 183, one end of the exhaust pipe 183 is arranged at the drain port 182, and the other end extends towards the inner bottom of the water storage chamber.

[0072] Specifically, a water storage cavity for storing condensed water is formed inside the water box body 181, and a drain outlet 182 is provided on the top of the water box body 181. The drain outlet 182 can be optionally connected to a connecting pipe 184. When the connecting pipe 184 is connected to the drain outlet 182, the condensed water can enter the water storage box 18 through the connecting pipe 184. When the connecting pipe 184 is disconnected from the drain outlet 182, the condensed water in the water storage box 18 can be poured out through the drain outlet 182. One end of the exhaust pipe 183 is set at the drain port 182, and the other end extends toward the bottom of the water storage chamber. When condensed water flows into the drain port 182 through the connecting pipe 184, the one-way valve 12 on the top of the water box body 181 discharges the gas to facilitate the water flow into the water storage chamber. When the water storage box 18 is disconnected from the connecting pipe 184, the water storage box 18 is inverted so that the side with the one-way valve 12 is located at the bottom. At this time, the end of the exhaust pipe 183 is located above the liquid surface. When pouring water through the gap between the exhaust pipe 183, external air enters the water storage chamber through the exhaust pipe 183, thereby avoiding excessive pressure in the drainage chamber and causing the condensed water in the water storage chamber to be unable to be discharged.

[0073] According to some embodiments of the utility model, the water storage box 18 also includes: a third sealing member 163, which is arranged at the drain outlet 182 and covers the peripheral wall surface of the drain outlet 182, and the third sealing member 163 is suitable for sealing the gap between the connecting pipe 184 and the drain outlet 182 when the drain outlet 182 is connected to the connecting pipe 184.

[0074] Specifically, the third sealing member 163 is disposed at the drain outlet 182 and is coated on the peripheral wall surface of the drain outlet 182. When the drain outlet 182 is connected to the connecting pipe 184, the gap between the connecting pipe 184 and the drain outlet 182 is sealed, so that the condensed water will not leak out from the gap between the connecting pipe 184 and the drain outlet 182 when flowing into the water storage box 18 through the connecting pipe 184. By providing the third sealing member 163, the connection between the connecting pipe 184 and the drain outlet 182 becomes tighter and more reliable, which not only reduces the risk of leakage, but also improves the sealing performance of the entire drainage system. The third sealing member 163 can be made of elastic materials such as rubber and silicone, and can absorb and buffer the impact and vibration caused by the insertion or extraction of the connecting pipe 184 to a certain extent, thereby protecting the drain outlet 182 and the connecting pipe 184 from damage.
