Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of clothing processing, and in particular to a liquid storage container for a clothing processing device and the clothing processing device. Background Art
[0002] WO2018 / 192459A1 discloses a detergent additive box, its mounting structure, and a dispensing box. The detergent additive box is a closed box structure with a cavity inside. It is equipped with a one-way air valve and a liquid outlet. The liquid outlet is provided with an on-off valve. The detergent additive box also includes a suction device, the inlet of which communicates with the cavity, and the outlet of which communicates with the inlet of the on-off valve.
[0003] The liquid outlet and the air vent of the detergent additive box are located on different sides of the box, which makes installation inconvenient.
[0004] CN106283528B discloses a detergent bottle, a detergent dispensing device for a washing machine, and a washing machine. The detergent bottle includes a bottle body and a one-way valve. The bottle body defines a detergent storage space, and the bottle body is provided with an air vent connected to the detergent storage space. The one-way valve is connected to the bottle body.
[0005] In this detergent bottle, the one-way valve protrudes from the outside of the bottle body, and the detergent bottle is placed horizontally. In the structure shown in Figure 17 of this patent, for example, the one-way valve and the one-way air intake structure protrude from the bottle body and are mounted on the bottle cap. This is not conducive to the storage or transportation of the detergent bottle. Utility Model Content
[0006] This application is made in view of the above-mentioned state of the prior art. The purpose of this application is to provide a liquid storage container for a clothes processing device that is easy to install.
[0007] The present application also provides a clothing processing device including the liquid storage container for the clothing processing device.
[0008] The embodiment of the present application provides a liquid storage container for a clothes processing device, which includes a container body, a sealing cover, an opening and closing valve, and a vent valve.
[0009] Separate liquid extraction holes and air vents are provided at the bottom of the container body to respectively install the opening and closing valve and the air vent.
[0010] The liquid storage container is constructed such that the on-off valve and the vent valve can be inserted and installed into the liquid extraction hole and the vent hole respectively from the outside of the container body. After the closure cover is installed on the container body, the closure cover and the container body clamp the on-off valve and the vent valve to prevent the on-off valve and the vent valve from escaping from the container body. The on-off valve and the vent valve are accommodated in the container body and the closure cover without protruding from the liquid storage container.
[0011] When the on-off valve is opened, the liquid in the container body can flow out from the on-off valve. When the on-off valve is closed, the liquid in the container body is prevented from flowing out from the on-off valve. When the vent valve is opened, the air pressure inside and outside the container body is balanced.
[0012] In the above embodiment, the liquid storage container is provided with both an on-off valve and a vent valve. The vent valve maintains pressure balance inside and outside the liquid storage container when liquid is extracted from the liquid storage container. This allows the liquid storage container, the liquid extraction device, and, for example, a laundry processing device including the corresponding liquid storage container or liquid extraction device to operate stably, with accurate and easily controllable liquid extraction volume. Separately provided liquid extraction holes and vent holes allow for the use of independent on-off valves and vent valves, resulting in a simple structure, easy assembly, and reliable performance.
[0013] For liquid storage containers, the liquid extraction hole and the vent hole are located at the bottom of the container body, that is, on the same surface, which is convenient for the installation of the opening and closing valve and the vent valve; when the liquid storage container is in use or not in use, the valve body is placed in a unified direction, and leakage is not likely to occur.
[0014] For example, when the on-off valve and the vent valve are opened respectively via the two push rods, the liquid storage container is easily installed and convenient to use when it is mounted on, for example, a clothes processing device.
[0015] The liquid extraction valve and vent valve are installed inside the liquid storage container without protruding from the container, making the container easier to store and transport and less prone to leakage. The liquid extraction valve and vent valve can be inserted from the outside of the container body into the liquid extraction hole and vent hole, respectively. After the cover is installed on the container body, the cover and the container body clamp the opening and closing valve and vent valve, preventing them from falling out of the container body. This makes the liquid extraction valve and vent valve simple and stable to install, with low assembly costs.
[0016] In at least one embodiment, the bottom of the container body is located at one end of the liquid storage container in the length direction, and the liquid extraction hole and the vent hole are both annular holes.
[0017] In the above embodiment, the annular hole makes it easier to install and seal the on-off valve and the vent valve.
[0018] In at least one embodiment, a first soft seal is provided in the gap between the opening and closing valve and the liquid extraction hole for sealing at the non-flow channel.
[0019] A second soft sealing member is provided in the gap between the vent valve and the vent hole for sealing at non-flow channel locations.
[0020] In the above embodiment, by providing sealing members at the liquid extraction hole and the vent hole, good sealing can be achieved to avoid unexpected liquid leakage.
[0021] In at least one embodiment, the first soft sealing component is a sealing ring, and the second soft sealing component is a sealing sleeve mounted on a valve housing of the vent valve.
[0022] In the above embodiment, the sealing ring has a simple structure, and the sealing sleeve can achieve sealing over a larger area, which is particularly beneficial for airtightness.
[0023] In at least one embodiment, the vent valve includes a vent tube, and one end of the vent tube is mounted to the valve housing of the vent valve and is sealed by interference fit or the second soft seal.
[0024] In the above embodiment, the provision of the vent tube allows the vent tube to extend higher into the liquid storage container. Thus, when the vent valve is located at the bottom of the liquid storage container, liquid is less likely to enter the vent valve and affect the ventilation effect. The connection of the vent tube is sealed, particularly when the sealing is achieved by the second soft seal. The second soft seal can seal the vent valve with the container body, as well as the vent valve structure itself and the interior space of the container body, resulting in a good sealing effect and reliable operation of the vent valve.
[0025] In at least one embodiment, the on-off valve comprises:
[0026] an opening and closing valve stem and a valve core connected to the opening and closing valve stem; and
[0027] A valve housing and a valve seat connected to or formed on the valve housing of the on-off valve form a valve cavity in the valve housing of the on-off valve.
[0028] A liquid pumping channel is formed in the on-off valve stem, communicating with the valve cavity and the outside of the on-off valve. The inlet of the liquid pumping channel is located at the lower side of the valve core, and the outlet of the liquid pumping channel is located outside the on-off valve.
[0029] When the on-off valve is opened, the inlet of the liquid extraction channel is connected to the valve cavity; when the on-off valve is closed, the connection between the inlet of the liquid extraction channel and the valve cavity is disconnected, and the liquid in the container body cannot flow out.
[0030] In this way, the on-off valve can be set smaller to reduce residual liquid.
[0031] In at least one embodiment, the liquid storage container further includes a sealing cover, and the liquid storage container is configured so that the on-off valve and the vent valve can be inserted and installed into the liquid extraction hole and the vent hole respectively from the outside of the container body, and after the sealing cover is installed to the container body, the sealing cover and the container body clamp the on-off valve and the vent valve to prevent the on-off valve and the vent valve from falling out of the container body.
[0032] In the above embodiment, when the on-off valve and the vent valve are installed on the liquid storage container, the installation is simple; due to the clamping of the container body and the cover, the on-off valve and the vent valve are installed stably and reliably on the liquid storage container.
[0033] In at least one embodiment, the cover and the container body are connected by snap fastening.
[0034] The on-off valve includes an on-off valve stem for controlling the opening and closing of the on-off valve, the sealing cover includes a liquid outlet hole, and the on-off valve stem extends into the liquid outlet hole.
[0035] The vent valve includes a vent valve stem for controlling the opening and closing of the vent valve, the sealing cover includes an air outlet hole, and the vent valve stem extends into the air outlet hole.
[0036] In the above embodiment, the snap connection is simple and reliable, and is particularly advantageous for clamping the on-off valve and the vent valve.
[0037] The on-off valve stem extends into the liquid outlet hole, and the vent valve stem extends into the air outlet hole, so that the on-off valve and the vent valve can be opened, for example, via the push rod.
[0038] In at least one embodiment, the container body includes a lower end wall and a body extension tube extending from the lower end wall toward the closure cap, the body extension tube defining the liquid extraction hole, and the opening and closing valve is sealingly mounted to the body extension tube.
[0039] The cover includes a first cover inner extension tube extending toward the container body, and the first cover inner extension tube and the container body outer extension tube clamp the valve housing of the on-off valve in the axial direction and the radial direction of the on-off valve.
[0040] In the above embodiment, the installation and support structure of the on-off valve are simple and reliable, and the position of the on-off valve is stable.
[0041] In at least one embodiment, the container body includes a lower end wall and a body extension tube extending from the lower end wall toward the interior of the container body, the body extension tube defines the vent hole, and the vent valve is sealingly mounted to the body extension tube.
[0042] The sealing cover includes a second sealing cover inner extension tube extending toward the container body, and the second sealing cover inner extension tube and the lower end wall clamp the valve housing of the vent valve in the axial direction of the vent valve.
[0043] In the above embodiment, the installation and support structure of the vent valve are simple and reliable, and the position of the vent valve is stable.

[0054] The following describes exemplary embodiments of the present application with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that these specific descriptions are only used to teach those skilled in the art how to implement the present application, and are not intended to exhaust all possible embodiments of the present application, nor to limit the scope of the present application.
[0055] Embodiments of the present application provide a laundry treating apparatus, which may include one or more liquid storage containers.
[0056] See also Figures 1 to 4 , firstly, a liquid storage container for a clothes processing device according to an embodiment of the present application (hereinafter sometimes referred to as “liquid storage container”) will be introduced.
[0057] The liquid storage container for a laundry processing apparatus according to an embodiment of the present application may include a container body 10, an on-off valve 30, and a vent valve 40. Separate liquid extraction holes 11 and vent holes 12 may be provided at the bottom (i.e., the same surface, e.g., the lower side) of the container body 10 to respectively mount the on-off valve 30 and the vent valve 40.
[0058] When the on-off valve 30 is opened, the liquid in the container body 10 can flow out from the on-off valve 30. When the on-off valve 30 is closed, the liquid in the container body 10 is prevented from flowing out from the on-off valve 30. When the vent valve 40 is opened, the air pressure inside and outside the container body 10 is balanced.
[0059] In the above embodiment, the liquid storage container is provided with both an on-off valve 30 and a vent valve 40. The vent valve 40 maintains pressure balance inside and outside the liquid storage container when liquid is being extracted. This allows the liquid storage container, the liquid extraction device, and, for example, a laundry processing device including the corresponding liquid storage container or liquid extraction device to operate stably, with accurate and easily controllable liquid extraction volume. The separate provision of the liquid extraction hole 11 and the vent hole 12 allows for the use of independent on-off valves 30 and vent valves 40, resulting in a simple structure, easy assembly, and reliable performance.
[0060] For the liquid storage container, the liquid extraction hole 11 and the vent hole 12 are on the same surface, which is convenient for installing the opening and closing valve 30 and the vent valve 40; when the liquid storage container is in use or not in use, the valve body is placed in a uniform direction, and leakage is not likely to occur.
[0061] For example, when the on-off valve 30 and the vent valve 40 are opened respectively via the two push rods, the liquid storage container can be easily installed and used when mounted on, for example, a clothes processing device.
[0062] Optionally, the bottom of the container body 10 is located at one end in the length direction of the liquid storage container, and the liquid extraction hole 11 and the vent hole 12 can both be annular holes (or cylindrical holes).
[0063] In the above embodiment, the annular hole makes it easier to install and seal the on-off valve 30 and the vent valve 40 .
[0064] Optionally, a first soft seal 31 may be provided in the gap between the on-off valve 30 and the liquid extraction hole 11 for sealing the non-flow channel. A second soft seal 41 may be provided in the gap between the vent valve 40 and the vent hole 12 for sealing the non-flow channel.
[0065] In the above embodiment, by providing sealing members at the liquid extraction hole 11 and the vent hole 12 , a good seal can be achieved to avoid unexpected liquid leakage.
[0066] Alternatively, the first soft sealing member 31 may be a sealing ring. The second soft sealing member 41 may be a sealing sleeve mounted on the valve housing of the vent valve 40, where the mounting method may be, for example, sleeve fitting or bonding. The sealing ring and the sealing sleeve may be made of rubber, silicone, or the like.
[0067] In the above embodiment, the sealing ring has a simple structure, and the sealing sleeve can achieve sealing over a larger area, which is particularly beneficial for airtightness.
[0068] Here, as an example, the valve housing of the vent valve 40 may be composed of an upper valve housing 42 and a lower valve housing 43 .
[0069] Optionally, the vent valve 40 includes a vent tube 44 , which is mounted to a valve housing (eg, upper valve housing 42 ) of the vent valve 40 at one end (eg, upper end) of the vent valve 40 and is sealed by an interference fit or a second soft seal 41 .
[0070] Here, as an example, see Figure 3 The vent tube 44 can simultaneously seal against the upper valve housing 42 and the second soft seal 41. The second soft seal 41 can extend to the upper side of the upper valve housing 42, and the second soft seal 41 can extend downward and cross the connection between the upper valve housing 42 and the lower valve housing 43 to extend between the lower valve housing 43 and the container body 10 (for example, the lower end wall 13 of the container body 10 described below).
[0071] In the above embodiment, the provision of the vent tube 44 allows the vent tube 44 to extend to a higher position within the liquid storage container. Thus, when the vent valve 40 is located at the lower side of the liquid storage container, liquid is less likely to enter the vent valve 40 and affect the ventilation effect. The connection of the vent tube 44 is sealed, particularly when the seal is achieved via the second soft seal 41. The second soft seal 41 can seal the vent valve 40 with the container body 10, as well as the vent valve 40 itself and the interior space of the container body. This provides a good sealing effect and reliable operation of the vent valve 40.
[0072] Optionally, the liquid storage container also includes a sealing cover 20, and the liquid storage container is constructed so that the opening and closing valve 30 and the vent valve 40 can be inserted and installed into the liquid extraction hole 11 and the vent hole 12 respectively from the outside of the container body 10 (for example, the lower side). After the sealing cover 20 is installed to the container body 10, the sealing cover 20 and the container body 10 clamp the opening and closing valve 30 and the vent valve 40 to prevent the opening and closing valve 30 and the vent valve 40 from falling off from the container body 10.
[0073] In the above embodiment, when the on-off valve 30 and the vent valve 40 are installed in the liquid storage container, the installation is simple; due to the clamping of the container body 10 and the cover 20, the installation of the on-off valve 30 and the vent valve 40 on the liquid storage container is stable and reliable.
[0074] Optionally, the cover 20 and the container body 10 can be connected by a snap fastener, the on-off valve 30 may include an on-off valve stem 35 for controlling the opening and closing of the on-off valve 30, the cover 20 includes a liquid outlet, and the on-off valve stem 35 extends into the liquid outlet.
[0075] The vent valve 40 may include a vent valve stem 45 for controlling the opening and closing of the vent valve 40 . The cover 20 includes an air outlet hole, and the vent valve stem 45 extends into the air outlet hole.
[0076] In the above embodiment, the snap connection is simple and reliable, and is particularly advantageous for clamping the on-off valve 30 and the vent valve 40. The on-off valve stem 35 extends into the liquid outlet hole, and the vent valve stem 45 extends into the air outlet hole, making it easy to open the on-off valve 30 and the vent valve 40, for example, via the push rod.
[0077] A sealing ring 47 may be provided between the vent valve stem 45 and the lower valve housing 43. A spring 46 may be provided in the vent valve 40, the spring 46 acting on the vent valve stem 45 to keep the vent valve 40 in a closed state.
[0078] Optionally, the container body 10 may include a lower end wall 13 and a body extension tube 14 extending from the lower end wall 13 toward the cover 20, the body extension tube 14 defines a liquid extraction hole 11, and the opening and closing valve 30 is sealedly installed to the body extension tube 14. More specifically, the opening and closing valve 30 is sealedly installed to the body extension tube 14 via a first soft seal 31.
[0079] The cover 20 may include a first cover inner extension tube 21 extending toward the container body 10 . The first cover inner extension tube 21 and the container body outer extension tube 14 clamp the valve housing of the opening and closing valve 30 in the axial direction A and the radial direction R of the opening and closing valve 30 .
[0080] In the above embodiment, the installation and support structure of the on-off valve 30 are simple and reliable, and the position of the on-off valve 30 is stable.

The outlet of the liquid extraction channel 351 is located at the lower end of the on-off valve stem 35, outside the on-off valve. When the on-off valve 30 is opened, the inlet of the liquid extraction channel 351 is connected to the valve cavity 39. When the on-off valve 30 is closed, the connection between the inlet of the liquid extraction channel 351 and the valve cavity 39 is disconnected, and the liquid in the container body 10 cannot flow out.
[0084] A spring 38 may be provided in the on-off valve 30 , and the spring 38 acts on the valve core 36 to keep the on-off valve 30 in a closed state.
[0085] Here, a sealing ring 361 may be provided on the valve core 36 for sealing between the valve core 36 and the valve seat 37 .
[0086] A valve seat sealing portion 371 may be connected to the lower side of the valve seat 37 . The valve seat sealing portion 371 may be formed of a soft material such as rubber, and is used to form a seal with the opening and closing valve stem 35 .
[0087] Optionally, the container body 10 may include a body extension tube 15 extending from the lower end wall 13 toward the interior of the container body 10, the body extension tube 15 defines a vent hole 12, and the vent valve 40 is sealingly installed to the body extension tube 15, more specifically, is sealingly installed to the body extension tube 15 via a second soft seal 41.
[0088] The cover 20 may include a second cover inner extension tube 22 extending toward the container body 10.
