Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of clothing cleaning, and in particular relates to a locking structure of an inner cover of a clothing processing device and the clothing processing device. Background Art

[0002] With the improvement of living standards, washing machines have entered thousands of households and become a necessity in daily life. A washing machine is a cleaning appliance that uses electricity to generate mechanical action to wash clothes. Pulsator washing machines generally have two structures. One is that the outer tub is fixed inside the clothing processing device, with an opening at the top of the clothing processing device and a door on the opening. The other is that the outer tub can be pulled forward and installed inside the clothing processing device, with an opening on the front side for the outer tub to enter and exit. The outer tub lid is installed on the top of the outer tub, and the outer tub lid generally has a clothing insertion opening. The clothing insertion opening is buckled with an inner lid that can be opened and closed. The inner lid is provided with a locking structure that locks with the edge of the clothing insertion opening. When in use, the locking structure is unlocked, the inner lid is opened, and clothes are placed into the washing tub through the insertion opening. When washing, the locking structure is locked and the inner lid is closed. This can prevent clothes from being thrown out, water from splashing out, or hot air from overflowing.

[0003] The locking structure usually includes a retractable lock tongue and a handle rotatably connected to the base plate of the locking structure. The rotation of the handle drives the lock tongue to retract and retract. Two downward-extending rotating plates are provided on the handle, which are clamped on both sides of the base plate mounting structure. The two rotating plates are provided with integrally formed protruding rotating protrusions, and the two rotating protrusions can be rotatably inserted into the rotating grooves on both sides of the mounting structure.

[0004] However, if the user forgets to close the inner cover when taking or putting clothes, when closing the top door of the clothing processing device or pushing the outer drum back into the clothing processing device, the upward-tilted handle of the inner cover will collide with the door or the top end wall of the front opening of the clothing processing device, and the handle will be deformed due to squeezing. Since the structural strength of the connection between the rotating plate and the integrally formed rotating protrusion is relatively low, the connection between the rotating plate and the rotating protrusion is deformed, whitened, or even broken, causing the handle to fall off.

[0005] In view of this, the present utility model is proposed. Utility Model Content

The anti-slip structure 310 is in dynamic contact with the hole wall of the corresponding rotating hole or the peripheral wall of the rotating shaft 3. By providing the anti-slip structure 310 in the rotating hole, the friction between the rotating hole and the rotating shaft 3 is increased to prevent the rotating shaft 3 from detaching.

[0047] In the embodiment of the present invention, the anti-slip structure 310 is a strip-shaped convex rib provided on the side wall of the rotating shaft 3 , and the extended end of the strip-shaped convex rib is in dynamic contact with the rotating hole.

[0053] Through the above-mentioned arrangement, the anti-slip structure 310 of the rotating shaft 3 is dynamically contacted with the mounting structure 110 which is far away from the rotating groove 211, so that the two end parts of the rotating shaft 3 are stably assembled with the handle 2 or the base 1 respectively. Moreover, since the rotating shaft 3 can only be deviated axially away from the defense line of the rotating groove 211, after the rotating shaft 3 is deviated, the anti-slip structure 310 is located between the corresponding mounting structure 110 and the rotating structure 210 or in the first rotating hole 212 of the corresponding rotating structure 210, thereby ensuring that the locking structure can continue to be used and the user can also promptly discover and adjust the position of the rotating shaft 3 when using the handle 2.

[0054] In an embodiment of the present invention, the aperture of the first rotating hole 212 of the rotating structure 210 is smaller than the aperture of the second rotating hole 111 and is equal to the diameter of the rotating shaft 3. A strip groove that is recessed inward is provided on the hole wall of the first rotating hole 212, and the extension direction of the strip groove is parallel to the axial direction of the rotating shaft 3; the strip groove is matched with the strip-shaped protruding anti-slip structure 310; so that when the rotating shaft 3 is inserted, the anti-slip structure 310 passes through the first rotating hole 212 in a shape-matched manner with the strip groove; when the rotating shaft 3 tends to disengage outward, the anti-slip structure 310 of the rotating shaft 3 has only a small probability of being able to align with the strip groove of the first rotating hole 212, thereby making it difficult for the rotating shaft 3 to deviate and move away from the rotating groove 211, further improving the stability of the assembly between the handle 2, the base 1 and the rotating shaft 3.
