In addition, without contradiction, those skilled in the art can combine and combine the different embodiments or examples described in this specification and the features of different embodiments or examples.

[0046] The first aspect of the embodiments of the present application provides a laundry treatment device, including a washing tub and a stirring device according to any embodiment of the present application.

[0047] The washing tub is used to hold laundry items, which can be clothes, shoes, carpets, etc. The top side of the washing tub has an opening through which the user can put in or take out the laundry items.

[0048] Taking a stir-type washing machine as an example, a stir-type washing machine may only include a washing tub. In this case, the washing tub can both hold washing water and accommodate clothes. A stir-type washing machine may also include an outer tub. The washing tub is disposed inside the outer tub. The outer tub is used to hold washing water, and the washing tub is used to hold clothes. Of course, in some embodiments, a stir-type washing machine may include a washing tub and an outer tub. The washing tub can both hold washing water and accommodate clothes, and the water in the washing tub will not enter the outer tub.

[0049] The stirring device is rotatably disposed inside the washing tub. It can be understood that when the laundry treatment device is in the washing state, the stirring device rotates. For example, in some embodiments, the laundry treatment device includes a motor and a speed reducer. The motor shaft of the motor drives the stirring device to rotate through the speed reducer to achieve the washing of the laundry items.

[0050] It should be noted that during the washing process, the stirring device rotates. During this process, the washing tub may rotate or may not rotate, which is not limited herein.

[0051] In a second aspect of the embodiments of the present application, a stirring device is provided. Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the stirring device includes a pulsator (not shown in the figure), a stirring rod 10, and a filtering assembly 20.

[0052] The pulsator is located at the bottom of the washing tub, and the stirring rod 10 extends along the height direction of the laundry treatment device.

[0053] The specific structure of the pulsator is not limited. Exemplarily, a plurality of water deflecting ridges are provided on the upper surface of the pulsator. During the rotation of the pulsator, the water deflecting ridges deflect the water flow and the laundry items, and the water deflecting ridges can enhance the stirring effect on the water flow.

[0054] The specific shape of the pulsator is not limited. Exemplarily, the pulsator can be a circular structure, which is convenient for the pulsator to rotate.

[0055] The axial direction of the stirring rod 10 is as shown in Figure 1 .

[0056] It should be noted that the axial direction of the stirring rod 10 is its extending direction. After being used in the laundry treatment device, the height direction of the laundry treatment device is substantially parallel to the axial direction of the stirring rod 10.

[0057] The cross-sectional shape of the stirring rod 10 in a plane perpendicular to its axial direction is not limited. For example, it can be oval, polygonal, circular, etc.

[0058] The stirring rod 10 is connected to the agitator wheel. Specifically, the bottom end of the stirring rod 10 is connected to the agitator wheel.

[0059] There is no restriction on the specific connection method between the stirring rod 10 and the agitator wheel. Exemplarily, the stirring rod 10 and the agitator wheel can be of an integral structure. Of course, the stirring rod 10 can also be of a split structure, and the split stirring rod 10 and the agitator wheel can be fixedly connected by fasteners such as bolts and screws, or connected by welding, clamping and other methods.

[0060] Please refer to Figure 2 , the stirring rod 10 has a receiving space 10a.

[0061] Exemplarily, the receiving space 10a communicates with the space below the agitator wheel (i.e., the back of the agitator wheel), that is to say, the liquid in the receiving space 10a can flow to the back of the agitator wheel.

[0062] Please refer to Figure 2 and 3 , the filtering assembly 20 includes a filtering unit 21 and a locking unit 22. The filtering unit 21 is at least partially disposed in the receiving space 10a, and the locking unit 22 is connected to the filtering unit 21. It can be understood that the filtering unit 21 is used to intercept impurities such as lint in the liquid entering the receiving space 10a.

[0063] The filtering unit 21 is at least partially disposed in the receiving space 10a means that the filtering unit 21 can be entirely disposed in the receiving space 10a, or partially disposed in the receiving space 10a.

[0064] Among them, the locking unit 22 has a locked state and an unlocked state. In the locked state, the locking unit 22 is connected to the stirring rod 10 to lock the filtering assembly 20 on the stirring rod 10. It can be understood that in the locked state, the locking unit 22 can make the filtering assembly 20 rotate with the stirring rod 10, and can reduce the possibility that the stirring rod 10 throws the filtering assembly 20 out, so as to ensure the filtering ability of the filtering assembly 20 for the liquid entering the receiving space 10a.

[0065] In the unlocked state, the locking unit 22 releases the stirring rod 10 so that the filtering assembly 20 can be detached from the stirring rod 10. It can be understood that in the unlocked state, the user can take out the filtering assembly 20 from the receiving space 10a of the stirring rod 10, which is convenient for the user to clean the impurities such as lint intercepted by the filtering assembly 20 and improves the user's convenience of use. It should be noted that during the taking and placing process of the filtering assembly 20, the shape and structure of the stirring rod 10 itself are not affected.

[0066] Exemplarily, the stirring rod 10 can be of an integral structure. In this way, it is beneficial to improve the structural strength of the stirring rod 10.

[0067] In the related art, a clothes treatment device is provided with a filter unit dedicated to collecting lint inside the drum. During the washing process, debris such as lint falling from the laundry is generally collected inside the filter unit. However, there is a problem that the filter unit is difficult to remove from the clothes treatment device, which is not convenient for users to clean, brings inconvenience to users, and results in a poor user experience.

[0068] The stirring device in the embodiment of the present application can be switched between a locked state and an unlocked state through the locking unit 22. When it is necessary to clean the filter assembly 20, the locking unit 22 can be switched to the unlocked state, so that the filter assembly 20 can be removed from the stirring rod 10 for cleaning, that is, the lint and other impurities collected in the filter assembly 20 can be cleaned, improving the convenience of use for users. After cleaning, the filter assembly 20 can be inserted into the accommodation space 10a, and then the locking unit 22 is switched to the locked state for the next use. By locking the filter assembly 20 on the stirring rod 10 through the locking unit 22, the possibility of the stirring rod 10 throwing out the filter assembly 20 can be reduced to a certain extent, which is beneficial to improving the filtering effect and reliability of the filter assembly 20.

[0069] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 2 , the stirring rod 10 has a first opening 10b communicating with the accommodation space 10a.

[0070] The first opening 10b is located at one end of the stirring rod 10 away from the impeller. That is to say, the first opening 10b is located at the top of the stirring rod 10, that is, the first opening 10b is located on the side of the washing drum close to the user along the axial direction. In this way, it is convenient for users to take out or insert the filter assembly 20 through the first opening 10b.

[0071] The first opening 10b is used for taking and placing the filter unit 21, and the locking unit 22 covers the first opening 10b. It can be understood that after the filter unit 21 enters the accommodation space 10a from the first opening 10b, the locking unit 22 covers the first opening 10b. In this way, it prevents clothes or small parts from entering the accommodation space 10a through the first opening 10b. On the other hand, it can also prevent clothes from winding around the edge of the first opening 10b to a certain extent.

[0072] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 3 , the filter unit 21 includes a bracket 211 and a filter net 212. One end of the bracket 211 away from the impeller is connected to the locking unit 22, and the other end is connected to the filter net 212. That is to say, the filter net 212 is arranged close to the bottom of the filter unit 21, that is, the bracket 211 is arranged above the filter net 212. In this embodiment, the position of the filter unit 21 is relatively low. Specifically, even when the water level in the washing drum is relatively low, it is convenient for the filter unit 21 to contact the liquid, which is beneficial to improving the filtering reliability.

[0073] The specific shape of the support 211 is not limited, as long as it is convenient for connecting the locking unit 22 and the filter screen 212.

[0074] Exemplarily, the support 211 is generally in a hollow cylindrical shape. The support 211 has a cavity 21a, and the side wall of the support 211 has a liquid passing channel 211a. The liquid passing channel 211a communicates with the cavity 21a and the accommodation space 10a. The filter screen 212 is used to filter the liquid entering the cavity 21a. It can be understood that the liquid entering the accommodation space 10a can enter the cavity 21a through the liquid passing channel 211a on the side wall of the support 211, and can flow downward under the action of gravity and flow through the filter screen 212, which is beneficial to filtering through the filter screen 212, thereby improving the filtering effect of the filtering unit 21.

[0075] The hollow cylindrical structure form is beneficial to improving the structural strength and structural reliability of the support 211. In addition, it is also convenient to centrally direct the liquid to be filtered to the filter screen 212, improving the filtering efficiency.

[0076] It should be noted that the specific manner of forming the liquid passing channel 211a is not limited, and it can be a liquid passing channel 211a formed by a plurality of holes penetrating the support 211.

[0077] It should be noted that the support 211 and the filter screen 212 can be detachably connected. In this way, it is beneficial to realize the disassembly and assembly of the support 211 and the filter screen 212, and it is convenient for the user to clean the filter screen 212. The support 211 and the filter screen 212 can also be non-detachably connected. Of course, the support 211 and the filter screen 212 can also be an integral structure.

[0078] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 4 , the locking unit 22 includes a main body portion 221 and a locking member 223. The locking member 223 is movably connected to the main body portion 221. The side wall of the stirring rod 10 has a first locking hole 10c (please refer to Figure 2 ). It can be understood that when the locking member 223 is inserted into the first locking hole 10c, the locking unit 22 is in a locked state. In this way, it is beneficial to prevent the filtering unit 21 from being thrown out through the first opening 10b. When the locking member 223 exits the first locking hole 10c, the locking unit 22 is in an unlocked state, which is beneficial to moving the filtering unit 21 upward and taking it out through the first opening 10b.

[0079] It should be noted that the specific number of the locking members 223 is not limited, and there can be multiple locking members 223 arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction of the locking unit 22.

[0080] In some embodiments, the locking unit 22 includes a motor for driving the locking member 223 to move so as to drive the locking member 223 to insert into or withdraw from the first locking hole 10c. In this way, it can be self-driven without the need for the user to apply force.

[0081] In other embodiments, please refer to Figure 4 , the locking unit 22 includes a force applying member 222 which can move relative to the stirring rod 10 and drive the locking member 223 to insert into or withdraw from the first locking hole 10c. It can be understood that the user can apply a force to the force applying member 222 to force the force applying member 222 to move relative to the stirring rod 10, and then drive the locking member 223 to move through the force applying member 222, with high reliability.

[0082] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 10 , Figure 11 and Figure 12 , the force applying member 222 moves along a first direction under an external force to drive the locking member 223 to withdraw from the first locking hole 10c.

[0083] In this embodiment, the force applying member 222 can move along a second direction under an external force in the opposite direction to drive the locking member 223 to insert into the first locking hole 10c. That is to say, the user can adjust the direction of the force applied to the force applying member 222 so that the locking member 223 withdraws from or inserts into the first locking hole 10c to achieve the switching of the locking unit 22 between the unlocked state and the locked state.

[0084] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 10 , Figure 11 and Figure 12 , the locking unit 22 further includes an elastic member 224 which applies an elastic force to the force applying member 222. The force applying member 222 has a tendency to move along the second direction under the action of the elastic force, so that the locking member 223 has a tendency to move in the direction of inserting into the first locking hole 10c. It can be understood that when the external force applied to the force applying member 222 is withdrawn, the force applying member 222 can move along the second direction under the elastic force of the elastic member 224 to drive the locking member 223 to move in the direction of inserting into the first locking hole 10c, thereby realizing the self-switching of the locking unit 22 from the unlocked state to the locked state without external force, reducing the possibility that the filtering assembly 20 is thrown out due to the user not switching the locking unit 22 to the locked state.

[0085] It should be noted that the first direction and the second direction are opposite directions along the axis. The specific directions of the first direction and the second direction are not limited. The first direction may be the direction towards the user along the axial direction of the stirring rod 10, and the second direction may be the direction away from the user along the axial direction of the stirring rod 10. In this way, it conforms to the ergonomic design and is convenient for the user to apply force. In addition, the first direction and the second direction may also be opposite directions along the circumferential direction. For example, the first direction is the counterclockwise direction and the second direction is the clockwise direction. In this embodiment, the moving mode of the force applying member 222 is rotation.

[0086] It should be noted that the specific structure of the force applying member 222 is not limited.

[0087] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 9 , the force applying member 222 includes a ring portion 222a and a connecting portion 222b provided on the radially inner side of the ring portion 222a; the main body portion 221 includes an annular wall 221c and a top wall 221d connected to each other. The ring portion 222a is sleeved on the outer periphery of the annular wall 221c and can slide axially. The connecting portion 222b is located on the radially inner side of the annular wall 221c, and the connecting portion 222b is movably connected to the locking member 223.

[0088] It can be understood that when the ring portion 222a slides axially on the outer periphery of the annular wall 221c, the connecting portion 222b can drive the locking member 223 to move, so that the force applying member 222 drives the locking member 223 to withdraw from or insert into the first locking hole 10c. That is to say, in this embodiment, the movement of the force applying member 222 is an axial linear movement.

[0089] The ring portion 222a is sleeved on the outer periphery of the annular wall 221c, and the connecting portion 222b is located on the radially inner side of the annular wall 221c. In this way, when the ring portion 222a and the connecting portion 222b move, the annular wall 221c can play an axial guiding role and define the movement trajectories of the ring portion 222a and the connecting portion 222b.

[0090] In this embodiment, the annular wall 221c has a sliding fit port 221c1. The connecting portion 222b located on the radially inner side of the annular wall 221c is connected to the ring portion 222a by passing through the sliding fit port 221c1 radially. The sliding fit port 221c1 avoids the axial movement stroke of the ring portion 222a and the connecting portion 222b to prevent interference. In this way, the sliding fit port 221c1 defines the movement range of the ring portion 222a and the connecting portion 222b.

[0091] It should be noted that the specific shape and the specific number of the sliding fit ports 221c1 are not limited. It may be an annular shape penetrating the circumference of the annular wall 221c, or may be a plurality of rectangles arranged at intervals along the circumference of the annular wall 221c.

[0092] In this embodiment, there is a sliding fit groove 221c2 between the ring portion 222a and the connecting portion 222b, and at least a part of the ring wall 221c is located within the sliding fit groove 221c2. In this way, when the ring portion 222a and the connecting portion 222b move, the sliding fit groove 221c2 and the part of the ring wall 221c within it can restrict the movement trajectories of the ring portion 222a and the connecting portion 222b, and the sliding fit groove 221c2 can play a guiding role.

[0093] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 10 、 Figure 11 and Figure 12 , the main body portion 221 includes a bottom wall 221f, and the connecting portion 222b is located between the top wall 221d and the bottom wall 221f. It can be understood that the connecting portion 222b moves between the top wall 221d and the bottom wall 221f, and the bottom wall 221f and the top wall 221d can play a protective role for the connecting portion 222b, reducing the damage to the connecting portion 222b during the operation of the laundry treating device, so as to ensure the stability of the connecting portion 222b driving the locking member 223 to move.

[0094] Please refer to Figure 8 , the bottom wall 221f has a through hole 222d, and the locking member 223 passes through the through hole 222d. In this way, the possibility of interference between the locking member 223 and the bottom wall 221f during movement can be reduced, which is beneficial for the locking member 223 to insert into or withdraw from the first locking hole 10c located on the stirring rod 10.

[0095] Exemplarily, please refer to Figures 5 to 7 , the main body portion 221 further includes a connecting column 221b, the connecting column 221b passes through the connecting portion 222b, and the connecting column 221b connects the top wall 221d and the bottom wall 221f. In this way, the connecting column 221b can establish the connection relationship between the top wall 221d and the bottom wall 221f, thereby improving the structural strength of the main body portion 221. In some embodiments, please refer to Figures 5 to 7 , the main body portion 221 includes a positioning column 221a, the positioning column 221a extends along the axial direction of the ring wall 221c, the connecting portion 222b has a guiding hole 222c, and the positioning column 221a is inserted into the guiding hole 222c. It can be understood that, on the one hand, the positioning column 221a can play a guiding role for the movement of the connecting portion 222b, so that the connecting portion 222b can move along the extending direction of the positioning column 221a, and on the other hand, the positioning column 221a can provide support for the connecting portion 222b, so that the connecting portion 222b can stably drive the locking member 223 to move.

[0096] It should be noted that the cross-sectional shape of the positioning column 221a along the axial direction is not limited, and it can be circular, elliptical, or rectangular.

[0097] It should be noted that both ends of the positioning post 221a in the axial direction are respectively connected to the top wall 221d and the bottom wall 221f.

[0098] In some embodiments, only the positioning post 221a may be provided on the top wall 221d and the bottom wall 221f, and they are connected through the positioning post 221a, without providing the connecting post 221b described above. In some other embodiments, both the positioning post 221a and the connecting post 221b described above may be provided on the top wall 221d and the bottom wall 221f, and they are connected through the positioning post 221a and the connecting post 221b. In still some other embodiments, only the connecting post 221b described above may be provided on the top wall 221d and the bottom wall 221f, and they are connected through the connecting post 221b, without providing the positioning post 221a.

[0099] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 6 , the elastic member 224 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the positioning post 221a. One end of the elastic member 224 abuts against the connecting portion 222b, and the other end abuts against the top wall 221d. It can be understood that when the force-applying member 222 moves under an external force, the elastic member 224 generates a compressive elastic deformation. The positioning post 221a guides the elastic deformation of the elastic member 224, prevents the elastic member 224 from laterally deflecting, and improves the deformation reliability of the elastic member 224.

[0100] It should be noted that the specific structure of the main body portion 221 is not limited, and it can be an integral structure or a split structure.

[0101] Exemplarily, please refer to Figure 7 , the main body portion 221 includes a split top cover 2211 and a bottom cover 2212. The top wall 221d is part of the top cover 2211, and the bottom wall 221f is part of the bottom cover 2212. Specifically, the top cover 2211 includes the top wall 221d, the first sub-ring wall 221c, and a connecting structure. The top cover 2211 and the bottom cover 2212 are connected through the connecting structure. Specifically, the connecting structure can be the above-mentioned positioning post 221a and / or the connecting post 221b.

[0102] The bottom cover 2212 includes the bottom wall 221f and the second sub-ring wall 221c. The first sub-ring wall 221c and the second sub-ring wall 221c are arranged at an axial interval, and the interval between them forms a sliding fit port 221c1.

[0103] In some specific embodiments, the top cover 2211 is an integral structure, such as an integral plastic part. The bottom cover 2212 is an integral structure, such as an integral plastic part.

[0104] An elastic catch is formed at one end of the connecting post 221b away from the top cover 2211 (i.e., the bottom end of the connecting post 221b), and a clamping groove is formed on the bottom wall 221f. The elastic catch passes through the clamping groove and hooks the bottom surface of the bottom wall 221f. In this way, the connection between the top cover 2211 and the bottom cover 2212 can be realized.

[0105] In some embodiments, the bottom end of the positioning post 221a is connected to the bottom wall 221f by screws.

[0106] In some embodiments, the bracket 211 is connected to the bottom cover 2212, and the connection can be achieved by means such as screws, snap connections, welding, and bonding.

[0107] It should be noted that the specific structure of the locking member 223 is not limited.

[0108] In some embodiments, please refer to Figures 5 to 7 , the locking unit 22 includes a first shaft portion 225 and a second shaft portion 226. The locking member 223 has a sliding groove 223a. The locking member 223 is rotatably connected to the main body portion 221 through the first shaft portion 225. The second shaft portion 226 is fixed to the force applying member 222, and the second shaft portion 226 is inserted into the sliding groove 223a. The force applying member 222 drives the locking member 223 to rotate around the first shaft portion 225 through the second shaft portion 226. For example, the second shaft portion 226 is fixed to the above-mentioned connecting portion 222b.

[0109] It can be understood that when the force applying member 222 moves in the axial direction, the sliding groove 223a enables the second shaft portion 226 to linearly displace in the axial direction and slide relative to the sliding groove 223a, preventing the second shaft portion 226 from being stuck in the sliding groove 223a. The second shaft portion 226 drives the locking member 223 to rotate around the first shaft portion 225 to insert or withdraw the locking member 223 from the first locking hole 10c.

[0110] The following will describe the movement process of a specific embodiment of the present application in conjunction with the attached Figure 11 and Figure 12 , and refer to Figure 11 , the locking unit 22 is in the locked state. When the force applying member 222 moves in the first direction under an external force, the above-mentioned connecting portion 222b drives the second shaft portion 226 to slide in the sliding groove 223a in the first direction ( Figure 11 the direction with the paper surface facing up), and at the same time, the elastic member 224 is compressed to store elastic potential energy. The connecting portion 222b drives the locking member 223 to rotate around the first shaft portion 225 in a direction away from the first locking hole 10c to withdraw the locking member 223 from the first locking hole 10c, so that the locking unit 22 switches from the Figure 11 shown locked state to the Figure 12 shown unlocked state. In Figure 12In the unlocked state shown, when the external force is removed and the force - applying member 222 moves in the second direction under the action of the elastic potential energy of the elastic member 224 ( Figure 12 in the direction of the paper surface facing downwards), the above - mentioned connecting portion 222b drives the second shaft portion 226 to slide in the chute 223a in the second direction, and then drives the locking member 223 to rotate around the first shaft portion 225 towards the direction close to the first locking hole 10c, so as to insert the locking member 223 into the first locking hole 10c, thereby enabling the locking unit 22 to Figure 12 switch from the unlocked state shown to Figure 11 the locked state shown.

[0111] In some other embodiments, the locking member 223 and the force - applying member 222 are rotationally connected through the second shaft portion 226. The first shaft portion 225 is fixed to the main body member, and the first shaft portion 225 passes through the chute 223a. The force - applying member 222 drives the locking member 223 to rotate around the second shaft portion 226 through the first shaft portion 225. It can be understood that when the force - applying member 222 moves in the axial direction, the chute 223a enables the first shaft portion 225 to not only linearly displace in the axial direction but also slide relative to the chute 223a, preventing the first shaft portion 225 from getting stuck in the chute 223a. The first shaft portion 225 drives the locking member 223 to rotate around the second shaft portion 226 to insert or withdraw the locking member 223 from the first locking hole 10c.

[0112] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 9 , one end of the locking member 223 away from the force - applying member 222 has a curved hook portion 223b. The bracket 211 has an avoidance hole 211b, and the avoidance hole 211b faces the first locking hole 10c. The hook portion 223b is used to insert into the first locking hole 10c through the avoidance hole 211b. It can be understood that through the hook portion 223b with a certain angle formed on the locking member 223, the stability of locking the locking unit 22 on the stirring rod 10 by the locking member 223 can be improved, and further reduce the possibility of the filtering assembly 20 being thrown out during the rotation of the stirring rod 10.

[0113] The assembly process of the locking unit 22: Rotationally connect the locking member 223 and the top cover 2211 through the first shaft portion 225, and sleeved the force - applying member 222 on the positioning post 221a. At this time, the locking member 223 passes through the force - applying member 222, and then connect the bottom cover 2212 with the connecting post 221b, and connect the bottom cover 2212 and the positioning post 221a.
