Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of drying appliances, and more precisely, to a water box, a dryer, and a washer-dryer integrated machine with a partitioned drying function. Background Art
[0002] Drying appliances such as dryers and washer-dryer integrated machines have been gradually popularized, and users have higher and higher requirements for their drying performance. Existing dryers or washer-dryer integrated machines all use an internal drum to hold clothes, and a heating system heats the internal space of the drum to achieve the drying function.
[0003] In existing drying appliances, all clothes are dried in the same space, and there will be a situation where small clothes are completely dried while large clothes are not completely dried. Moreover, it is difficult to take out small clothes midway during the drying process, and continued drying may damage small clothes; clothes such as socks and diapers carry fungi and are prone to cross-infection if mixed with other clothes; silk clothes cannot be dried by high-speed rotation in the drum. Therefore, users need to dry clothes in batches separately or purchase multiple drying appliances to dry them separately, resulting in a long drying time and a poor user experience.
[0004] To solve the above problems, there is currently a solution in the art to partition the internal space of the drum, and different types of clothes are stored in different partitioned spaces to facilitate the timely removal of the dried clothes. This solution can solve the problem of different drying times for large and small clothes, but the problem of cross-infection still cannot be avoided in the same drum, and special clothes such as silk clothes cannot be dried either.
[0005] In summary, the art needs a technical solution that can place different types of clothes in different spaces for drying without using multiple devices. Summary of the Utility Model

[0031] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0032] As Figures 1 to 3 shown, a water box with a partition drying function in the present application includes a bracket 1, a water box body 2, a drying box 3, and a cover plate 4. The bracket 1 is installed inside the housing of a drying appliance. The water box body 2 is detachably connected to the bracket 1. The drying box 3 is detachably connected to the water box body 2. The cover plate 4 is installed on the top of the water box body 2. The drying box 3 has a space for holding clothes inside. There is a drum for drying clothes inside the drying appliance. When drying the clothes inside the drum, part of the heat is transferred to the water box with the partition drying function to dry the clothes inside the drying box 3.
[0033] The drying box 3 provides an independent drying space and can be used to hold small clothes such as handkerchiefs, towels, socks, and baby clothes. After the small clothes are dried, they can be taken out in advance without affecting the drying of the clothes in the drum, and at the same time, the amount of clothes dried per unit time is increased. The drying box 3 can isolate clothes with fungi such as socks and diapers from the clothes in the drum to prevent cross-infection. Part of the heat for drying the clothes in the drum is transferred to the drying box 3 to dry the clothes inside. The drying temperature is lower, which is more suitable for some special material clothes. At the same time, no additional heat source is required, which is more energy-saving.
[0034] Specifically, the side of the water box body 2 has an installation cavity 20 for installing the drying box 3. The drying box 3 is slidably installed inside the installation cavity 20. The water box body 2 is slidably installed inside the bracket 1. The sliding direction of the drying box 3 is perpendicular to the sliding direction of the water box body 2. When the water box body 2 is inserted into the bracket 1, the drying box 3 will not shake or fall off.
[0035] See Figure 2 and Figure 6, the bottom of the bracket 1 has several through holes 11 to improve the heat transfer efficiency. Further, the bottom of the bracket 1 has a bracket inclined surface 10, and several through holes 11 are provided on the bracket inclined surface 10. By setting the bracket inclined surface 10, the heat receiving area can be increased, and the water box body 2 has an inclined surface corresponding to the bracket inclined surface 10, which can facilitate the user to identify the insertion direction when placing the water box body 2.
[0036] See Figure 4 and Figure 7 , the water box body 2 has an inclined surface 21, and the inclined surface 21 fits with the bracket inclined surface 10. Preferably, a guide groove is provided on the inclined surface 21, and a guide strip is provided inside the bracket inclined surface 10. The guide strip and the guide groove are arranged in alignment to facilitate guiding when pulling out and inserting the water box body 2.
[0037] See Figure 7 and Figure 8 , two inner side walls parallel to the installation cavity 20 respectively have guide rail grooves 201, and two sides of the drying box 3 respectively have guide rails 31. When the drying box 3 is inserted into the installation cavity 20, the guide rails 31 are respectively embedded in the guide rail grooves 201 to realize the guiding of the drying box 3.
[0038] See Figure 5 and Figure 8 , the drying box 3 internally has a hollow plate 30. The hollow plate 30 divides the inner cavity of the drying box 3 into a drying cavity 301 located above the hollow plate 30 and a water collecting cavity 302 located below the hollow plate 30. The top of the drying cavity 301 is closed by a cover plate 4. A number of drain through holes 300 are arranged in an array on the hollow plate 30. Clothes are placed on the hollow plate 30 and located in the drying cavity 301. During drying, part of the water drips through the drain through holes 300 into the water collecting cavity 302. After drying is completed, the drying box 3 can be pulled out and the water collected in the water collecting cavity 302 can be poured out. The drying box 3 has high drying efficiency and can complete the water pouring operation conveniently and quickly, which helps to improve the user experience.
[0039] The bottom of the cover plate 4 has a water collecting inclined surface 41, and the water collecting inclined surface 41 is communicated with the water collecting cavity 22 inside the water box body 2. The water vapor generated during the drying process condenses on the water collecting inclined surface 41 and flows into the water box cavity 22 under the guidance of the water collecting inclined surface 41. After drying is completed, the water box body 2 can be pulled out and the water collected in the water box cavity 22 can be poured out. By setting the water collecting inclined surface 41, it can prevent the water vapor from condensing and dripping on the clothes, thus improving the drying effect.
[0040] See Figure 9 and Figure 10, the bottom of the cover plate 4 is provided with a plurality of connecting members 42, and the inner part of the water box body 2 is provided with connection buckles corresponding to the connecting members 42. The cover plate 4 is fixedly connected to the water box body 2 through the connecting members 42, and a sealing ring is arranged at the connection part between the cover plate 4 and the water box body 2. Preferably, the connecting members 42 are arranged around the drying box 3 to avoid affecting the pulling operation of the cover plate 4 on the drying box 3.
[0041] The present utility model also discloses a dryer adopting the water box with the function of partition drying and a washing and drying integrated machine adopting the water box with the function of partition drying.
[0042] The above description of the disclosed embodiments enables those skilled in the art to implement or use the present utility model. Various modifications to these embodiments will be obvious to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein can be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present utility model. Therefore, the present utility model will not be limited to the embodiments shown herein, but will be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
