Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of washing machines, and more specifically, it relates to a impurity removal structure for a washing machine filter. Background Technique

[0002] The washing machine filter can remove impurities in water during the washing process to protect the internal structure of the washing machine and improve the washing effect. It mainly consists of a filter box body and a filter net, which are used to intercept and collect impurities in the water and keep the water quality inside the washing machine clean.

[0003] When the washing machine filter filters internal impurities, the water is filtered through a fine screen. After the impurities are air-dried, they will solidify on the surface of the screen, making it difficult to clean them thoroughly, which will easily affect the water outlet and impurity removal effects during subsequent use. Content of the Utility Model

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide an impurity removal structure for a washing machine filter to solve the above problems.

[0005] To achieve the above purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solutions:

[0006] Its structure includes a water outlet, a buckle, a mounting shell, and a filter grid. The water outlet and the buckle are an integrated structure. The water outlet is fixed to the mounting shell by the buckle. The water outlet and the filter grid are an integrated structure.

[0007] The filter grid includes a filter net, a water inlet, a main frame, a mounting groove, and an impurity removal frame. The filter net is installed on the outer surface of the main frame. The water inlet and the main frame are an integrated structure. The mounting groove is embedded inside the main frame to assist in the installation of the impurity removal frame. The filter net is located inside the water outlet. The bottom of the impurity removal frame is made of a material that can be curled to assist in the curling and convergence of impurities. The impurity removal frame can be taken and moved to assist in the overall installation and disassembly. The water inlet is connected to the water outlet. The mounting groove assists in the movement and installation of the impurity removal frame. The filter net is a fine mesh structure to further intercept fine impurities.

[0008] As a further improvement of the utility model, the impurity removal frame includes a main rod, a cross rod, and a taking rod. The cross rod is perpendicularly installed to the main rod. The taking rod is fixed to the top of the main rod. There are five main rods and they are evenly distributed in the horizontal direction.

[0009] As a further improvement of the utility model, the taking rod assists in taking the whole by external force. The main rod is in a J-shaped structure in the static state. When the bent part at the end of the main rod is subjected to the water impact force, it will stretch out. The cross rod and the main rod intersect with each other to increase the interception range. The cross rod and the main rod intercept impurities. Most impurities will move downward and precipitate, and are accumulated by the bent part.

[0010] As a further improvement of the present utility model, the main rod includes a hard rod, bumps, force-receiving blocks, and elastic bodies. The elastic bodies and the hard rod are of an integrated structure. The bumps are evenly distributed on the surface of the elastic bodies. The force-receiving blocks and the elastic bodies are of an integrated structure. The arc range of the force-receiving blocks mainly bears the water impact force to drive the activities of the connection parts.

[0011] As a further improvement of the present utility model, the elastic bodies are made of elastic plate materials and are in a bent state without resistance, which plays a role in collecting and caking the intercepted impurities. The bumps intercept the impurities more effectively, and the hard rod assists the force-receiving fixed points of the elastic bodies.

[0012] As a further improvement of the present utility model, the bumps include rubber cores and soft layers. The rubber cores and the soft layers are of an integrated structure. The rubber cores are fixed on the outer surface of the hard rod, and the rubber cores support their own elasticity.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] 1. When water enters the inside of the water inlet, large impurities are first intercepted by the interweaving of the main rod and the cross rod of the impurity removal frame, and the filter screen further intercepts small impurities. The force-receiving blocks will be driven by the water impact force to expand the elastic bodies downward. The impurities settling downward will be further intercepted and wound by the bumps on the surface of the elastic bodies. After the washing machine is cleaned, the force-receiving blocks lose the water impact force, and the elastic bodies will bounce back. The elastic bodies will curl together. By applying an external force to take the force-receiving blocks along the installation groove, the bent state at the bottom of the main rod will curl out the impurities, and the impurities can be taken and processed in a group. The bumps have a certain softness, which can better take and clean the caked impurities, can collect and cake the filtered impurities, is convenient for subsequent cleaning, and prevents them from adhering to the fine filter screen to form a blockage and be difficult to clean thoroughly.

[0015] 2. Most of the impurities are gathered at the bent parts of the elastic bodies. The scattered impurities are gathered through the bending of the elastic bodies to make them gather together. When the washing machine is not in use, the gathered impurities will be air-dried and caked. The elasticity and softness of the bumps assist the air-dried impurities to be better shed, preventing them from adhering to the fine rigid screen and being difficult to handle.

Detailed implementation mode

[0023] The following further describes the present utility model with reference to the accompanying drawings:

[0024] As shown in Figure 1 to Figure 6 shown:

[0025] The present utility model provides an impurity removal structure for a washing machine filter, and its structure includes a water outlet 1, a buckle 2, an installation shell 3, and a filter grid 4. The water outlet 1 and the buckle 2 are of an integrated structure. The water outlet 1 is buckled and fixed to the installation shell 3 through the buckle 2. The water outlet 1 and the filter grid 4 are of an integrated structure;

[0026] The filter grid 4 includes a filter net 41, a water inlet 42, a main frame 43, an installation groove 44, and an impurity removal frame 45. The filter net 41 is installed on the outer surface of the main frame 43. The water inlet 42 and the main frame 43 are of an integrated structure. The installation groove 44 is embedded inside the main frame 43 to assist in the installation of the impurity removal frame 45. The filter net 41 is located inside the water outlet 1. The bottom of the impurity removal frame 45 is made of a material that can be curled to assist in the curling and convergence of impurities. The impurity removal frame 45 is taken and moved to assist in the overall installation and disassembly. The water inlet 42 is connected to the water outlet 1. The installation groove 44 assists in the movement and installation of the impurity removal frame 45. The filter net 41 is of a fine mesh structure to further intercept fine impurities. The impurity removal frame 45 intercepts most impurities and aggregates them into blocks.

[0027] Among them, the impurity removal frame 45 includes a main rod 11, a cross bar 12, and a taking rod 13. The cross bar 12 is installed perpendicular to the main rod 11. The taking rod 13 is fixed to the top of the main rod 11. There are five main rods 11 and they are evenly distributed in the horizontal direction. There are six cross bars 12.

[0028] Among them, the picking rod 13 assists external force to pick up the whole. The static state of the main rod 11 is a J-shaped structure. When the bent part at the tail end of the main rod 11 is subjected to water impact force, it will stretch out. The cross bar 12 intersects with the main rod 11 to increase the interception range. The cross bar 12 and the main rod 11 intercept impurities. Most impurities will move downward and precipitate, and are accumulated by the bent part. When the water outlet 1 is picked up, the filter grid 4 will be pulled out together.

[0029] Among them, the main rod 11 includes a hard rod 21, a convex block 22, a stress block 23, and an elastic body 24. The elastic body 24 and the hard rod 21 are of an integrated structure. The convex blocks 22 are evenly distributed on the surface of the elastic body 24. The stress block 23 and the elastic body 24 are of an integrated structure. The arc range of the stress block 23 itself mainly bears the water impact force to drive the joint part to move. Each group of the convex blocks 22 has nine.

[0030] Among them, the elastic body 24 is made of elastic plate material and is in a bent state without resistance, which plays a role in gathering and caking the intercepted impurities. The convex blocks 22 intercept the impurities more effectively. The hard rod 21 assists the force-bearing fixed point of the elastic body 24. The top of the stress block 23 is an arc structure, which can better receive external force.

[0031] Among them, the convex block 22 includes a rubber core 31 and a soft layer 32. The rubber core 31 and the soft layer 32 are of an integrated structure. The rubber core 31 is fixed on the outer surface of the hard rod 21. The rubber core 31 supports its own elasticity. The soft layer 32 is made of soft material. When impurities adhere to the surface, due to gravity, it extends a certain distance to make the adhesion area of subsequent impurities larger.

[0032] The specific usage method and function of this embodiment:

[0033] In the present utility model, the installation shell 3 is assembled inside the washing machine drum, and the filter grid 4 is located outside the drum. When the washing machine is running, water will enter the filter grid 4 through the water inlet 42 for filtration and then output through the water outlet 1. When water enters the inside of the water inlet 42, large impurities are first intercepted by the interweaving of the main rod 11 and the cross rod 12 of the impurity removal frame 45, and the filter net 41 further intercepts small impurities. The large impurities intercepted by the main rod 11 and the cross rod 12 will precipitate and move downward. When water is conveyed into the inside of the water inlet 42, the force receiving block 23 will be driven by the impact force of the water to drive the elastic body 24 to expand downward. The impurities precipitating downward will be further intercepted and entangled by the convex blocks 22 on the surface of the elastic body 24. After the washing machine finishes cleaning, the force receiving block 23 loses the impact force of the water, and the elastic body 24 will bounce back, causing the precipitated impurities to be driven by the convex blocks 22 and curled together by the elastic body 24. When impurities adhere to the surface of the soft layer 32, the softness of the surface of the soft layer 32 and the elasticity of the rubber core 31 will be bent due to the gravity of the adhesion, increasing the subsequent impurity adhesion surface. When the filter needs to be cleaned, only the water outlet 1 needs to be removed through the buckle 2, thereby taking out the filter grid 4 together. The force receiving block 23 is taken along the installation groove 44 by an external force, and the bent state of the bottom of the main rod 11 will curl out the impurities, enabling the impurities to be taken and processed in a group. The convex blocks 22 have a certain softness, which can better take and clean the agglomerated impurities. The clear water can also better clean the small impurities on the filter net 41, and there will be no large impurities agglomerating and adhering.

[0034] Any technical solution using the technical solution of the present utility model, or a technical solution designed by those skilled in the art inspired by the technical solution of the present utility model and achieving the above technical effects shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
