[0038] The following embodiments of the present invention are described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are used to illustrate the present invention, but are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.
[0039] In the description of the embodiments of the present application, it should be noted that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "back", "left", "right", "top", "bottom", "inside", "outside", etc., indicating the orientation or positional relationship, are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing the embodiments of the present application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operate in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be understood as limiting the embodiments of the present application. In addition, the terms "first", "second", and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0040] In the description of the embodiments of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise specified or limited, the terms "connected" and "connection" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, they can refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integral connections; they can refer to mechanical connections or electrical connections; they can refer to direct connections or indirect connections through an intermediate medium. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in the embodiments of this application based on the specific circumstances.
[0041] The present application embodiment provides a clothes processing device. Figure 8 and Figure 9The laundry processing device includes a drum assembly (not shown), a door seal 200, a nozzle unit 100, and multiple water channels. The laundry processing device can be in any form, including but not limited to a washing machine, a washer-dryer, etc. This specification uses a washer-dryer as an example.
[0042] For example, in one embodiment, the laundry processing device further includes a housing, wherein the drum assembly and the door seal 200 are both disposed within the housing, with the door seal 200 located at the front side of the drum assembly. The interconnected space formed by the interior of the drum assembly and the radially inner side of the door seal 200 constitutes a laundry processing chamber. The housing has a laundry loading port, through which a user can place laundry into the laundry processing chamber.
[0043] For example, in one embodiment, the laundry processing device includes a door assembly mounted on the housing for opening and closing the laundry loading port. The door assembly includes a glass door bowl that arches toward the laundry processing chamber, extending radially inward from the door seal 200. The glass door bowl allows the user to observe the interior of the laundry processing chamber and fills a portion of the radially inner portion of the door seal 200 to prevent laundry from falling into it.
[0044] The door seal 200 has an air inlet 200a and a plurality of mounting holes. For example, in one embodiment, the laundry processing apparatus includes a drying tunnel assembly that communicates with the air inlet 200a and introduces a dry, hot air flow into the laundry processing chamber through the air inlet 200a to dry the laundry in the laundry processing chamber.
[0045] See also Figure 1 and Figure 7 The spray head unit 100 comprises a shell 10 and multiple interconnected joint pipes 50. The shell 10 is located radially inward of the door seal 200. The multiple joint pipes 50 are inserted into corresponding mounting holes to circumferentially constrain the spray head unit 100 on the door seal 200. Multiple water channels are connected to a water source and corresponding joint pipes 50, respectively. Fluid in the water channels enters the shell 10 through the corresponding joint pipes 50. The shell 10 has at least one water outlet for discharging the fluid within the shell 10. The number of water outlets can be one, two, three, or more.
[0046] It should be noted that the fluids in the multiple waterways can be the same or different, and can include a detergent mixture or clean water, for example. Note that the clean water mentioned in this specification is not limited to tap water, but rather refers to a fluid with a lower detergent concentration than a detergent mixture. For example, the water source can be a water supply device of the laundry processing equipment, such as a water inlet valve, or the outlet of a circulating pump that pumps water from the barrel assembly into the waterway.
[0047] See also Figure 3 、 Figure 10 and Figure 11 The end of each joint tube 50 away from the housing 10 extends toward the air inlet 200a. In other words, the end of the joint tube 50 away from the housing 10 is closer to the air inlet 200a. This frees up some installation space on the radially outer side of the door seal 200, away from the air inlet 200a, for the multiple joint tubes 50. This allows for convenient placement of other components, such as the balance weight and detergent box. This structure allows the multiple joint tubes 50 to avoid the balance weight, detergent box, and other structures, minimizing the impact of the multiple joint tubes 50 on the installation space of existing structures within the laundry processing device.
[0048] For some examples, see Figure 2 The connector pipe 50 includes a pipe body 504 and a plug-in positioning portion 503. The plug-in positioning portion 503 surrounds the outer circumference of the pipe body 504 and protrudes from the outer circumferential surface of the pipe body 504. The plug-in positioning portion 503 is located radially outward of the door seal 200. The plug-in positioning portion 503 serves to limit the position of the spray head unit 100 along the extension direction of the connector pipe 50, thereby securing the spray head unit 100 to the door seal 200.
[0049] It should be noted that the door seal 200 is elastic, for example, it can be a rubber or silicone member. The inner diameter of the mounting hole is smaller than the outer diameter of the insertion positioning portion 503 , and the inner diameter of the mounting hole is also smaller than the outer diameter of the pipe body 504 .
[0050] For example, during assembly, the tube body 504 is passed through the above-mentioned mounting hole from the radial inner side to the radial outer side of the door sealing ring 200. When the plug-in positioning portion 503 passes through the mounting hole, the plug-in positioning portion 503 will increase the elastic deformation of the door sealing ring 200. When the plug-in positioning portion 503 passes through the mounting hole, the hole wall of the mounting hole at least partially restores the elastic deformation, so that the plug-in positioning portion 503 abuts against the outer end surface of the mounting hole. At this time, the plug-in positioning portion 503 and the top wall 14 radially clamp the door sealing ring 200 between the two, thereby realizing the positioning of the nozzle unit 100 and the door sealing ring 200.
[0051] For some examples, see Figure 2 The tube body 504 includes a penetration section and a connecting section. The penetration section is located between the insertion positioning portion 503 and the shell 10. The connecting section is connected to the end of the penetration section away from the shell 10. The penetration section is inserted into the mounting hole. The end of the tube body 504 away from the shell 10 extends toward the air inlet 200a.
[0052] In some embodiments, the insertion section extends from one end of the shell 10 toward the air inlet 200 a.
[0053] In some embodiments, one end of the connecting section away from the interpenetrating section extends toward the air inlet 200 a.
[0054] In some embodiments, the end of the insertion section away from the shell 10 and the end of the connecting section away from the insertion section both extend toward the air inlet 200 a.
[0055] In some embodiments, the interpenetrating segment extends along a straight line, while the connecting segment extends along a straight line, with the centerline of the interpenetrating segment and the centerline of the connecting segment not being collinear. In other words, the interpenetrating segment extends in a different direction than the connecting segment. For example, the connecting segment extends closer to the air inlet 200a, thereby creating a closer proximity between the connecting segment and the air inlet 200a on the door seal 200. Both the interpenetrating segment and the connecting segment extend in a straight line, facilitating smooth demolding during the molding process and facilitating manufacturing. Their different extension directions also facilitate segmented adjustment of the overall extension direction of the tube body 504.
[0056] For some examples, see Figure 4 One of the interpenetrating section and the connecting section extends along a straight line, while the other extends along a curve. Alternatively, the interpenetrating section extends along a curve, while the connecting section extends along a straight line. Curved extension helps free up more space for the section corresponding to the pipe body 504, further allowing for the removal of other structures.
[0057] For some examples, see Figure 6 The center lines of the joint pipes 50 are located in the same plane, which facilitates the installation of the nozzle unit 100 to the door seal ring 200, and each joint pipe 50 is provided with a mounting hole.
[0058] Illustratively, the centerline of each joint tube 50 lies in a plane perpendicular to the axis of the door seal 200. In one embodiment, along the axis of the door seal 200, the radially inner surface of the door seal 200 is inclined relative to the horizontal. The centerline of each joint tube 50 lies in a plane that intersects and is not perpendicular to the surface of the shell 10 where it connects to the joint tube 50. This ensures that when the shell 10 rests against the radially inner surface of the door seal 200, the centerline of each joint tube 50 lies in a plane perpendicular to the axis of the door seal 200.
[0059] In some embodiments, the space within the shell 10 includes a first cavity 10A and a second cavity 10B that are not interconnected. For example, the shell 10 includes a first partition structure 20 disposed within the shell 10 and separating the space within the shell 10 into at least the first cavity 10A and the second cavity 10B.
[0060] The shell 10 has a first water inlet 10a and a second water inlet 10c, each connected to a corresponding joint pipe 50, so as to introduce fluid in the joint pipe 50 into the shell 10. The at least one water outlet includes a first water outlet 10b and a second water outlet 10d. The first chamber 10A communicates with the first water inlet 10a and the first water outlet 10b, and the second chamber 10B communicates with the second water inlet 10c and the second water outlet 10d.
[0061] The multiple water channels include a first water channel 300C and a second water channel 300B. The first water channel 300C connects the water source to the joint pipe 50 corresponding to the first water inlet 10a, while the second water channel 300B connects the water source to the joint pipe 50 corresponding to the second water inlet 10c. Fluid from the first water channel 300C enters the first chamber 10A and is ejected through the first water outlet 10b. Fluid from the second water channel 300B enters the second chamber 10B and is ejected through the second water outlet 10d. Because the first and second chambers 10A and 10B are not interconnected, the first and second water inlets 10a and 10c can be connected to water channels with different functional purposes within the laundry treatment apparatus. This allows the spray head unit 100 to deliver fluids with different functions to the laundry treatment chamber, thereby improving the integration of the spray head unit 100.
[0062] Exemplarily, the fluid in the first water channel 300C is a detergent mixed solution, the fluid sprayed from the first water spray port 10b is the detergent mixed solution, and the spray head unit 100 plays the role of injecting detergent components.
[0063] Exemplarily, the fluid in the second water channel 300B is clean water, and the fluid sprayed out from the second water spray port 10d is clean water, which can clean the door sealing ring 200 and / or the door glass bowl.
[0064] In some embodiments, the plurality of connector pipes 50 include a first connector pipe 52 and a second connector pipe 51. There are at least two first water inlets 10a, with the first connector pipe 52 connected to one of the first water inlets 10a and the second connector pipe 51 connected to the other first water inlet 10a. Fluids in the first connector pipe 52 and the second connector pipe 51 are mixed in the first chamber 10A.
[0065] The multiple water channels also include a third water channel 300A, which connects a water source to a joint pipe 50 corresponding to one of the first water inlets 10a. A first water channel 300C connects a water source to a joint pipe 50 corresponding to another first water inlet 10a. The fluid in the first water channel 300C is a detergent mixture, while the fluid in the third water channel 300A is clean water.
[0066] The intersection of two fluids with different compositions can promote the dissolution and mixing of detergent. The first water spray port 10b is used to inject the mixed solution of detergent and water into the drum assembly, which is conducive to the full contact of detergent with the clothes to be treated and improves the cleaning effect.
[0067] For example, the plurality of joint pipes 50 further include a third joint pipe 53, which is connected to the second water inlet 10c. The first joint pipe 52, the second joint pipe 51 and the third joint pipe 53 are arranged in parallel.
[0068] For some examples, see Figure 7 The nozzle unit 100 further includes a second partition structure 30 disposed within the shell 10. The second partition structure 30 separates the space within the shell 10 into a closed chamber 10E. The first chamber 10A, the second chamber 10B, and the closed chamber 10E are not connected to each other. The closed chamber 10E is a closed chamber that is not connected to the outside.
[0069] It should be noted that the nozzle unit 100 is arranged in the clothing processing device and has certain shape characteristics based on factors such as the installation space in the clothing processing device or aesthetic considerations. The setting of the closed cavity 10E can separate the unused space in the nozzle unit 100 to adjust the size of the first cavity 10A and the second cavity 10B, which not only meets the design requirements of the first cavity 10A and the second cavity 10B, but also takes into account the installation space or aesthetic considerations.
[0070] The second spacing structure 30 may be in any form, such as a plate, a cylinder, etc. The first spacing structure 20 and the second spacing structure 30 may be in the same or different form.
[0071] In some embodiments, the first cavity 10A and the second cavity 10B are arranged along the circumference of the door seal 200 , and the shell 10 extends along the circumference of the door seal 200 . Correspondingly, the plurality of joint pipes 50 are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the door seal 200 .
[0072] For example, see Figure 2 The shell 10 includes a top wall 14 and a bottom wall 15, which are arranged at intervals along the radial direction of the door sealing ring 200. A plurality of joint pipes 50 are connected to the top wall 14, and the bottom wall 15 is located on one side of the top wall 14 close to the center of the door sealing ring 200.
[0073] For example, see Figure 3 The shell 10 includes two end plates 11 , which are located at opposite ends of the shell 10 along the circumference of the door sealing ring 200 .
[0074] For example, see Figure 1 The shell 10 includes a first side wall 12 and a second side wall 13. The first side wall 12 and the second side wall 13 are spaced apart along the axial direction of the door sealing ring 200. The first side wall 12 is located on a side of the second side wall 13 close to the cylinder assembly.
[0075] As an optional embodiment, the two end plates 11 , the top wall 14 , the bottom wall 15 , the first side wall 12 and the second side wall 13 constitute a box-shaped shell 10 .
[0076] As an optional embodiment, the two end plate portions 11 , the bottom wall 15 , the first side wall 12 , the second side wall 13 , the first spacing structure 20 , and the second spacing structure 30 are integrally formed.
[0077] For some examples, see Figure 1 and Figure 8 The number of the second water spraying outlets 10d is multiple, including a first water spraying sub-outlet 10d1 and a second water spraying sub-outlet 10d2.
[0078] Exemplarily, the first water spray outlet 10d1 is provided at a position of the bottom wall 15 corresponding to the second cavity 10B, so that when the spray head assembly is installed in place, it is conducive to spraying water toward the door glass bowl.
[0079] Exemplarily, the second water spray outlet 10d2 is arranged at the position of the end plate 11 corresponding to the second cavity 10B. In this way, when the nozzle assembly is installed in place, it is beneficial to spray water to the door seal 200, clean the door seal 200, and reduce the chance of microbial growth.
[0080] Exemplarily, a portion of the bottom wall 15 corresponding to the second cavity 10B and a portion of the end plate 11 corresponding to the second cavity 10B are respectively provided with a second water spraying port 10d to expand the spraying range and improve the effect.
[0081] In some embodiments, a first water spray port 10b is disposed on the first sidewall 12 to spray water toward the interior of the drum assembly. The detergent mixture in the first chamber 10A is delivered to the surface of the laundry through the first water spray port 10b, thereby facilitating full contact between the detergent components and the laundry, thereby improving the cleaning efficiency.
[0082] For example, in one embodiment, please refer to Figure 5 The nozzle unit 100 further includes a nozzle 40 disposed within the first cavity 10A. The nozzle 40 is connected to one of the first water inlets 10a, and the outlet of the nozzle 40 sprays water toward the first water outlet 10b. This ensures that, on the one hand, the fluid ejected from the outlet of the nozzle 40 does not completely impinge on the inner wall of the first cavity 10A, but instead remains ejected through the first water outlet 10b, thereby driving the fluid ejected from the first water outlet. On the other hand, the nozzle 40 protrudes from the inner wall of the first cavity 10A, and when the fluid is ejected from the outlet, it draws fluid near the outlet, enhancing mixing and foaming effects.
[0083] As an optional embodiment, the nozzle 40 is connected to the water inlet of the third water channel 300A. The fluid in the third water channel 300A is clean water. The fluid flow rate at the outlet of the nozzle 40 is larger, and the impact effect is more obvious.
[0084] For some examples, see Figure 7 The nozzle 40 includes a reducing tube 41 connected to the first water inlet 10a. This reducing tube 41 is used to increase the flow rate of the fluid discharged from the nozzle 40 outlet. It will be appreciated that the flow cross-section of the reducing tube 41 gradually decreases along the flow direction of the fluid, thereby increasing the flow rate. A higher flow rate of the fluid discharged from the nozzle 40 outlet more significantly impacts the detergent mixture in the first chamber 10A, further promoting detergent mixing and foaming.
[0085] In some embodiments, the nozzle unit 100 further includes a turbulent flow structure 80 , which is disposed in the joint pipe 50 corresponding to the first water inlet 10 a connected to the nozzle 40 , and is configured to provide a circumferential velocity component to the fluid in the joint pipe 50 .
[0086] The circumferential velocity component provided above refers to the fluid in the joint pipe 50 passing through the turbulent flow structure 80 , whose velocity component in the circumferential direction of the joint pipe 50 is not zero, and the circumferential direction of the joint pipe 50 is perpendicular to the extension direction of the joint pipe 50 .
[0087] In this embodiment, the turbulent structure 80 allows part of the fluid to have both a circumferential movement speed and a forward flow speed, so that part of the fluid roughly moves in a spiral. When the fluid is ejected from the water outlet end of the joint pipe 50, the fluid is facilitated to diffuse in a conical shape, with a wider radiation range and better visual effect.
[0088] Exemplarily, the turbulence structure 80 includes one or more spiral blades, which divide at least a portion of the length of the second connector pipe 51 into multiple sub-flow channels. The term "multiple" refers to a plurality of blades, which can be two, three, or more. This means that the number of helical turns is not less than two, and does not limit the number of turns. After the fluid passes through the spiral blades, it exhibits a spiral motion. The spiral blades have a simple structure, provide a good flow disturbance effect on the fluid, and provide low resistance, thereby reducing energy loss during passage.
[0089] In the embodiments of the present application, unless otherwise expressly specified or limited, a first feature being "above" or "below" a second feature may mean that the first feature is in direct contact with the second feature, or that the first feature is in indirect contact with the second feature through an intermediate medium. Furthermore, a first feature being "above," "above," and "above" a second feature may mean that the first feature is directly above or obliquely above the second feature, or simply means that the first feature is higher in level than the second feature. A first feature being "below," "below," and "below" a second feature may mean that the first feature is directly below or obliquely below the second feature, or simply means that the first feature is lower in level than the second feature.
[0090] In the description of this specification, reference to the terms "one embodiment," "some embodiments," "example," "specific example," or "some examples" means that the specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described in conjunction with the embodiment or example are included in at least one embodiment or example of the present application.
