[0037] Embodiment 1

[0038] See Figure 1 AndFigure 2 , this embodiment provides a laundry treatment device, including a drum assembly 10, an air guiding assembly 20 and a moisture absorption assembly 30. The drum assembly 10 includes an outer drum 11 and an inner drum 12 disposed inside the outer drum 11. The inner drum 12 is capable of rotating around its own axis. The outer drum 11 has an air inlet 111 and an air outlet 112; the air guiding assembly 20 is disposed outside the outer drum 11 and is capable of guiding the air flow from the air inlet 111 to the air outlet 112; the moisture absorption assembly 30 is disposed outside the outer drum 11 and is located on the air flow path. The moisture absorption assembly 30 includes a moisture absorption member 31 and a heating member 32. The heating member 32 is located inside the moisture absorption member 31. The moisture absorption member 31 has an exhaust port 311 that selectively communicates with the outside; the drying mode and the dehumidification mode of the laundry treatment device share the heating member 32. In the drying mode, the heating member 32 heats the air flow discharged from the air outlet 112. In the dehumidification mode, the heating member 32 heats the moisture absorption member 31.

[0039] In the drying mode, the inner drum 12 rotates around its own axis. The air flow enters the inner drum 12 from the air inlet 111 and flows out of the inner drum 12 from the air outlet 112 to take away the moisture in the clothes. The air flow passes through the moisture absorption member 31 and the heating member 32. The moisture absorption member 31 quickly removes the moisture in the air flow. The air flow is heated under the action of the heating member 32 and then flows into the inner drum 12 again. The air flow circulates and cooperates with the rotation of the inner drum 12 to realize the drying of the clothes in the inner drum 12. In the dehumidification mode, the heating member 32 heats the moisture absorption member 31 to realize dehumidification, which is convenient for the next use of the moisture absorption member 31 and ensures the moisture absorption efficiency. Since the heating member 32 is located inside the moisture absorption member 31 and has a large contact area, rapid dehumidification can be realized. The moisture generated during the heating of the moisture absorption member 31 by the heating member 32 can be discharged from the exhaust port 311. In the drying mode, the power of the heating member 32 is relatively low and will not damage the clothes; in the dehumidification mode, the power of the heating member 32 is relatively high to improve the dehumidification efficiency. The moisture absorption member 31 absorbs moisture in the drying mode and dehumidifies in the dehumidification mode. By sharing the heating member 32 in the drying mode and the dehumidification mode, the number of components is reduced, the space occupation is reduced, the structure is made more compact, and the cost is saved; controlling the power of the heating member 32 according to the demand can not only ensure that the clothes are not damaged during drying, but also ensure that the moisture absorption member 31 is quickly dehumidified, which is convenient for recycling and ensures the moisture absorption efficiency.

[0040] The power of the heating element 32 is adjustable. In the drying mode, the power of the heating element 32 is relatively low and will not damage the clothes; in the dehumidifying mode, the power of the heating element 32 is relatively high to improve the dehumidifying efficiency. It can be. In the drying mode, the heating element 32 heats the air flow discharged from the air outlet 112 at the first power; in the dehumidifying mode, the heating element 32 heats the moisture absorption member 31 at the second power; the first power is less than the second power. At the first power, the heating temperature of the heating element 32 is greater than or equal to 40°C and less than or equal to 60°C to prevent damage to the clothes, such as 40°C, 45°C, 50°C, 55°C or 60°C. At the second power, the heating temperature of the heating element 32 is greater than or equal to 180°C and less than or equal to 250°C to ensure the dehumidifying efficiency, such as 180°C, 190°C, 200°C, 210°C, 220°C, 230°C, 240°C or 250°C.

[0041] The air guiding assembly 20 includes an air guiding pipeline 21 and a first fan 22. One end of the air guiding pipeline 21 is communicated with the air inlet 111, and the other end is communicated with the air outlet 112. The first fan 22 and the moisture absorption member 31 are both arranged on the air guiding pipeline 21; in the drying mode, the first fan 22 guides the air flow to circulate along the air guiding pipeline 21 and the inner cylinder 12 to dry the clothes in the inner cylinder 12.

[0042] Along the air flow direction, the first fan 22 is located downstream of the moisture absorption member 31 to prevent the humid air flow from damaging the first fan 22. As Figure 1 shown by the arrow, the air flow enters the inner cylinder 12 from the air inlet 111 and flows out of the inner cylinder 12 from the air outlet 112 to take away the moisture in the clothes. The air flow passes through the moisture absorption member 31 and the heating element 32, and then enters the inner cylinder 12 from the air inlet 111 again through the first fan 22. The air flow circulates to realize the drying of the clothes in the inner cylinder 12.

[0043] An exhaust valve 33 is arranged at the exhaust port 311. The exhaust valve 33 can be an existing switching valve and can switch between the first working position and the second working position. When the exhaust valve 33 is in the first working position, the exhaust port 311 is not communicated with the outside, and the air outlet end of the moisture absorption member 31 is communicated with the air guiding pipeline 21. When the exhaust valve 33 is in the second working position, the exhaust port 311 is communicated with the outside, and the air outlet end of the moisture absorption member 31 is not communicated with the air guiding pipeline 21. In the drying mode, the exhaust valve 33 is in the first working position; in the dehumidifying mode, the exhaust valve 33 is in the second working position.

[0044] In the dehumidifying mode, the first fan 22 can be turned on or off. If the first fan 22 is turned off, only the heating element 32 is used to dehumidify the moisture absorption member 31; if the first fan 22 is turned on, while the heating element 32 dehumidifies the moisture absorption member 31, the first fan 22 can guide the air flow to pass through the moisture absorption member 31 to improve the dehumidifying efficiency.

[0045] In this embodiment, the drying mode and the dehumidifying mode share the first blower 22. Specifically, the first blower 22 has a first air inlet 221, and the first air inlet 221 is selectively communicated with the outside; in the dehumidifying mode, the first blower 22 guides the outside air flow to enter from the first air inlet 221, flow through the inner cylinder 12 and the moisture absorbent 31, and then be discharged from the exhaust port 311.

[0046] In the drying mode, the first air inlet 221 is not communicated with the outside; in the dehumidifying mode, the first air inlet 221 is communicated with the outside. As Figure 2 shown by the arrows, the air flow enters the first blower 22 from the first air inlet 221, enters the inner cylinder 12 from the air inlet 111, flows out of the inner cylinder 12 from the air outlet 112, the air flow flows through the moisture absorbent 31 to take away the moisture of the moisture absorbent 31, and at the same time, the heating element 32 heats the moisture absorbent 31 to accelerate dehumidification, and the air flow is discharged from the exhaust port 311 of the moisture absorbent 31 to the outside.

[0047] Specifically, a first air inlet valve 23 is provided at the first air inlet 221. The first air inlet valve 23 can be an existing switching valve and can switch between a first working position and a second working position. When the first air inlet valve 23 is in the first working position, the first air inlet 221 is not communicated with the outside, and the air inlet end of the first blower 22 is communicated with the air guiding pipeline 21. When the first air inlet valve 23 is in the second working position, the first air inlet 221 is communicated with the outside, and the air inlet end of the first blower 22 is not communicated with the air guiding pipeline 21. In the drying mode, the first air inlet valve 23 is in the first working position; in the dehumidifying mode, the first air inlet valve 23 is in the second working position.

[0048] The dehumidifying mode can be carried out after the drying mode or at any other time as long as it does not affect the next drying use.

[0049] The moisture absorbent 31 has a moisture absorption cavity for the air flow to pass through, and a moisture absorption part is arranged in the moisture absorption cavity. The heating element 32 is located in the moisture absorption cavity and penetrates through the moisture absorption part. Both ends of the moisture absorption cavity are communicated with the air guiding pipeline 21. When the air flow passes through the moisture absorption cavity, it is in full contact with the moisture absorption part and can be quickly dehumidified.

[0050] The moisture absorption part can adopt existing materials with adsorption separation and reversible dehydration properties, which can adsorb moisture in the air at low temperature and quickly desorb moisture when heated at high temperature. Zeolite is preferably used. The moisture absorption part includes a moisture absorption material, and the moisture absorption material is zeolite. Zeolite is a mineral with a regular crystal multi-microporous structure, including a large number of micro-cavities, a large total surface area and a huge cavity inside the crystal. Due to the above structure, zeolite is suitable for accommodating a large amount of moisture by absorbing water molecules on the broad surface of its multi-microporous structure. By subsequently heating the zeolite mineral, the water molecules are desorbed and released in the form of water vapor, and the zeolite can be reused.

[0051] The water absorption rate of the zeolite is between 20% and 30%, that is, 20% - 30% of its weight can absorb water. Therefore, when used in a laundry treatment device, to ensure the moisture absorption efficiency, the amount of the moisture absorption material used should be able to adsorb the water content in the dehydrated laundry at one time.

[0052] The heating element 32 can adopt existing heating wires or heating tubes. To increase the contact area between the heating element 32 and the moisture absorption element 31, the heating element 32 is arranged along the air flow direction and extends from one end of the moisture absorption chamber to the other end.

[0053] The heating element 32 can include one heating wire or multiple heating wires. The multiple heating wires can be spaced apart to make the moisture absorption element 31 heated evenly.

[0054] The duration of the dehumidification mode can be determined according to the humidity of the moisture absorption element 31. The laundry treatment device further includes a humidity sensor, which is arranged downstream of the exhaust port 311 and can detect the humidity of the gas discharged from the exhaust port 311. When the humidity value is less than or equal to the first set value, the dehumidification stops.

[0055] A lint filter can be arranged between the air outlet 112 and the moisture absorption element 31 to filter the lint in the air flow discharged from the air outlet 112, so as to prevent blockage after the lint enters the moisture absorption element 31 and ensure the normal moisture absorption function of the moisture absorption element 31.

[0056] Embodiment Two

[0057] Figure 3 and Figure 4 Embodiment Two is shown, which is further improved on the basis of Embodiment One. The laundry treatment device further includes a condensation assembly 40, which is arranged downstream of the exhaust port 311 and can condense the gas discharged from the exhaust port 311. The gas discharged from the exhaust port 311 is the humid gas generated during the dehumidification of the moisture absorption element 31. During dehumidification, the heating element 32 is in a high-temperature heating state. Therefore, the gas discharged from the exhaust port 311 is high-temperature and humid gas. If directly discharged to the outside, it may cause scalding and dampness. Therefore, the condensation assembly 40 is provided to condense the gas.

[0058] The condensation assembly 40 can adopt existing structures such as condensers. Alternatively, the condensation assembly 40 includes a condensing member 41, a condensate water pipe 42 and an exhaust pipe 43. The condensing member 41 has a condensation chamber. The condensate water pipe 42 is communicated with the condensation chamber and is used for spraying water into the condensation chamber. The exhaust pipe 43 is communicated with the condensation chamber.

[0059] In the drying mode, the first air inlet 221 is closed, the exhaust port 311 is closed, and the heating element 32 is turned on, as Figure 3As shown by the arrows, the air flow enters the inner cylinder 12 from the air inlet 111 and flows out of the inner cylinder 12 from the air outlet 112 to take away the moisture in the clothes. The air flow passes through the moisture absorber 31 and the heating element 32, and then enters the inner cylinder 12 from the air inlet 111 again through the first blower 22. The circulating air flow realizes the drying of the clothes in the inner cylinder 12.

[0060] In the dehumidification mode, the first air inlet 221 is opened, the exhaust port 311 is opened, and the heating element 32 heats the moisture absorber 31. As Figure 4 shown by the arrows, the first blower 22 guides the external air flow to enter from the first air inlet 221, flow through the inner cylinder 12 and the moisture absorber 31, and then be discharged from the exhaust port 311. The condensate pipe 42 sprays water into the condensation chamber. When the high-temperature and humid air meets the water, it is cooled, and its temperature and humidity decrease, and the gas is discharged from the exhaust pipe 43.

[0061] After the water sprayed by the condensate pipe 42 is in full contact with the air flow discharged from the exhaust port 311, the water can be discharged from the bottom of the condensation member 41. Specifically, a drain pipe 44 is provided at the bottom of the condensation member 41, and the water is discharged from the drain pipe 44. The condensate pipe 42 is connected to the top of the condensation chamber, and the drain pipe 44 is provided at the bottom of the condensation chamber to facilitate the downward flow of the water. The exhaust port 311 is communicated with the top of the condensation chamber, so that the gas discharged from the exhaust port 311 can be in full contact with the water sprayed by the condensate pipe 42.

[0062] The exhaust pipe 43 can be directly communicated with the condensation chamber, or the exhaust pipe 43 is communicated with the drain pipe 44 and extends upward to guide the gas to be discharged upward. The exhaust pipe 43 is indirectly communicated with the condensation chamber through the drain pipe 44.

[0063] An inlet valve 45 is provided on the condensate pipe 42. The opening or closing of the inlet valve 45 controls the water inlet or water cut-off of the condensate pipe 42 to the condensation chamber. In the dehumidification mode, the exhaust port 311 is opened and the inlet valve 45 is opened.

[0064] Embodiment III

[0065] Figure 5 and Figure 6 shows Embodiment III, which is different from Embodiment I in that different blowers are used in the drying mode and the dehumidification mode. The moisture absorption assembly 30 further includes a second blower 34. The moisture absorber 31 has a second air inlet 312, and the second air inlet 312 is selectively communicated with the outside. In the dehumidification mode, the second blower 34 guides the external air flow to enter the moisture absorber 31 from the second air inlet 312, flow through the moisture absorber 31, and then be discharged from the exhaust port 311. The air flow in the dehumidification mode does not need to flow through the inner cylinder 12, shortening the air flow path and improving the dehumidification efficiency.

[0066] In the drying mode, the first blower 22 is turned on and the exhaust port 311 is closed. As Figure 5As shown by the arrow, the first blower 22 guides the air flow to circulate along the air guiding pipeline 21 and the inner cylinder 12 to dry the clothes in the inner cylinder 12. In the dehumidification mode, the first blower 22 is turned off, the second blower 34 is turned on, the exhaust port 311 and the second air inlet 312 are opened, and the heating element 32 is turned on, as Figure 6 shown by the arrow, the second blower 34 guides the external air flow to enter from the second air inlet 312 into the moisture absorber 31 and flow through the moisture absorber 31 and then be discharged from the exhaust port 311.

[0067] Specifically, a second air inlet valve 35 is provided at the second air inlet 312. The second air inlet valve 35 can be opened or closed to connect or disconnect the second air inlet 312 from the outside. In the dehumidification mode, the second air inlet valve 35 is opened, and the second air inlet 312 is opened to communicate with the outside.

[0068] The second blower 34 can be arranged downstream of the exhaust port 311 or upstream of the second air inlet 312, as long as it can ensure guiding the external air flow to flow through the moisture absorber 31. Even two second blowers 34 can be arranged, one second blower 34 is arranged downstream of the exhaust port 311, and the other second blower 34 is arranged upstream of the second air inlet 312.

[0069] Embodiment 4

[0070] Figure 7 Embodiment 4 is shown, which is further improved on the basis of Embodiment 3. The clothes treatment device further includes a condensation assembly 40. The condensation assembly 40 is arranged downstream of the exhaust port 311 and can condense the gas discharged from the exhaust port 311. The gas discharged from the exhaust port 311 is the humid gas generated during the dehumidification of the moisture absorber 31. During dehumidification, the heating element 32 is in a high-temperature heating state. Therefore, the gas discharged from the exhaust port 311 is high-temperature humid gas. If it is directly discharged to the outside, it may cause scalding and dampness. Therefore, the condensation assembly 40 is provided to condense the gas.

[0071] The condensation assembly 40 can adopt existing structures such as a Peltier device. Alternatively, the condensation assembly 40 includes a condensing member 41, a condensate water pipe 42 and an exhaust pipe 43. The condensing member 41 has a condensation chamber. The condensate water pipe 42 is communicated with the condensation chamber and is used for spraying water into the condensation chamber. The exhaust pipe 43 is communicated with the condensation chamber.

[0072] In the dehumidification mode, the second blower 34 is turned on, the exhaust port 311 and the second air inlet 312 are opened, and the heating element 32 is turned on, as Figure 7 shown by the arrow, the second blower 34 guides the external air flow to enter from the second air inlet 312, flow through the moisture absorber 31 and then be discharged from the exhaust port 311. The condensate water pipe 42 sprays water into the condensation chamber. The high-temperature humid air is cooled by the water, and the temperature and humidity decrease. The gas is discharged from the exhaust pipe 43.

[0073] After the water sprayed out from the condensate pipe 42 comes into full contact with the air flow discharged from the exhaust port 311, the water can be discharged from the bottom of the condensate member 41. Specifically, a drain pipe 44 is provided at the bottom of the condensate member 41, and the water is discharged from the drain pipe 44. The condensate pipe 42 is connected to the top end of the condensate chamber, and the drain pipe 44 is provided at the bottom end of the condensate chamber to facilitate the downward flow of water. The exhaust port 311 is communicated with the top end of the condensate chamber, so that the gas discharged from the exhaust port 311 can come into full contact with the water sprayed out from the condensate pipe 42.

[0074] The exhaust pipe 43 can be directly communicated with the condensate chamber, or the exhaust pipe 43 is communicated with the drain pipe 44 and extends upward to guide the gas to be discharged upward, and the exhaust pipe 43 is indirectly communicated with the condensate chamber through the drain pipe 44.

[0075] An inlet valve 45 is provided on the condensate pipe 42. The opening or closing of the inlet valve 45 controls the water inlet or water cut-off of the condensate pipe 42 to the condensate chamber. In the dehumidification mode, the exhaust port 311 is opened and the inlet valve 45 is opened.
