[0035] The above drawings illustrate specific embodiments of the present application, which will be described in more detail below. These drawings and the textual description are not intended to limit the scope of the present application in any way, but rather to illustrate the concepts of the present application to those skilled in the art by reference to specific embodiments. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0036] To make the purpose, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more clear, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention. The following embodiments and features in the embodiments can be combined with each other unless there is a conflict.
[0037] As described in the background, clothes handling devices such as dryers, washer-dryers, and clothing care cabinets can remove moisture from clothes by drying them with hot air after washing and drying. These devices typically include a main body and a heat pump system. The main body has a storage space and an air duct connecting the storage space and the heat pump system. A drum is located within the storage space, which holds the clothes to be dried. The heat pump system includes an evaporator and a condenser, which circulate hot air through the air duct to the storage space.
[0038] As the hot air circulates along the air duct, lint on the clothes will circulate along the air duct with the hot air and attach to the evaporator and condenser, affecting the heat exchange of the evaporator and condenser. In addition, the lint attached to the evaporator and condenser for a long time cannot be cleaned, and bacteria will grow on the surface of the evaporator and condenser. When the circulating hot air passes through the evaporator and condenser, bacteria and odors will be brought into the drum, contaminating the clothes, thereby affecting the drying efficiency and resulting in poor drying effect of clothes.
[0039] To overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, the present invention provides a clothing treatment device whose water system can spray water on clothing to make the clothing softer and more comfortable after drying, thereby improving the drying effect. Furthermore, water can be sprayed on the evaporator and condenser of the heat pump system to clean the evaporator and condenser, reduce lint attached to the evaporator and condenser, and improve the heat exchange performance of the evaporator and condenser, thereby improving the drying efficiency of clothing and ensuring the drying effect. Furthermore, a water storage element is disposed within the storage bin of the clothing treatment device and is connected to the storage bin. This allows the water storage element to be filled with clean water to operate the water system, eliminating the need for additional piping to connect the water storage element to a water source. The storage bin is used to seal the water storage element to prevent impurities and dust from entering the water storage element, making the water storage element simple, convenient, and quick to use. This ensures the water quality within the water storage element is clean, further ensuring the drying effect of clothing.
[0040] The content of the utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings so that those skilled in the art can understand the content of the utility model more clearly and in detail.
[0041] Reference Figures 1 to 8As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides a clothing processing device, including a clothing processing device body 600, a heat pump system 630 and a water system. The clothing processing device body 600 has an openable and closable storage bin 610, and the clothing processing device body 600 has a storage space for accommodating clothing. The heat pump system 630 is installed in the clothing processing device body 600. The water system includes a connecting pipe 400, a water storage part 100, a pumping part 200 and at least two water outlet parts 300. The water storage part 100 is connected to the pumping part 200 through the connecting pipe 400, and the pumping part 200 is respectively connected to each water outlet part 300 through the connecting pipe 400.
[0042] The water storage element 100 is located in the storage bin 610 .
[0043] At least two water outlets 300 are respectively disposed in the accommodating space and at the heat pump system 630 to spray cleaning water onto the clothes in the accommodating space and some components of the heat pump system 630 .
[0044] The water system provided in the embodiment of the present application can be used in clothing processing equipment having a heat pump system 630, such as a dryer, a washer-dryer, a clothing care cabinet, and the like. Specifically, when the clothing processing equipment is a dryer or a washer-dryer, a drum 620 is provided in the storage space of the clothing processing equipment body 600, and the clothes are located in the drum 620 during drying. The clothing processing equipment has an openable and closable storage bin 610, which is usually provided at the upper part of the clothing processing equipment body 600. When the storage bin 610 is opened, the user can add detergent, care agent, etc., or when the storage bin 610 is opened, the user can dump the sewage and hair debris collected in the storage bin 610 during the drying process of the clothes, or the condensed water generated by the condenser during the operation of the heat pump system 630.
[0045] The water system is equipped with a water storage unit 100 for storing clean water. This unit supplies water to the water system to maintain its normal operation. The water storage unit 100 is located within and connected to the storage bin 610. When the storage bin 610 is in use, the inlet of the water storage unit 100 is exposed as the storage bin 610 is opened. This allows the user to add cleaning agents, conditioners, or remove wastewater, lint, or condensed water. This allows the user to simultaneously refill the water storage unit 100 with clean water through the storage bin 610, simplifying operation. Furthermore, when the storage bin 610 is closed, the water storage unit 100 can be sealed with the storage bin 610 to prevent the entry of impurities and dust. The water storage component 100 is arranged in the storage bin 610 and covered with a storage box, which can also avoid the need for additional pipes in the clothing processing device to connect to an external water source, thereby ensuring that the structure of the clothing processing device is simple and compact without affecting the original functions and component layout.
[0046] The water system is also provided with a connecting pipe 400, a pumping part 200 and at least two water outlet parts 300, wherein the pumping part 200 can be a water pump, which is connected to the clothing processing device body 600 and communicated with the water storage part 100 through the connecting pipe 400. The two water outlet parts 300 are respectively located at the drum 620 in the accommodating space of the clothing processing device, and are used to be installed at the heat pump system 630 to spray water into the inside of the drum 620 and the evaporator and condenser surfaces of the heat pump system 630, so that the drying and care effects of the clothes in the drum 620 can be improved, and the adhesion of lint impurities on the surface of the evaporator and condenser can be reduced, the surface of the evaporator and condenser can be kept clean, the heat exchange efficiency of the evaporator and condenser can be improved, and the drying efficiency of the clothing processing device can be improved to ensure the drying effect of the clothes.
[0047] Therefore, the clothing processing equipment provided in the embodiment of the present application is provided with a water system, and the water system is provided with a connecting pipe 400, a water storage part 100, a pumping part 200 and at least two water outlet parts 300, so that the pumping part 200 pumps water to the water storage part 100 through the connecting pipe 400, and transmits the water to the water outlet part 300 through the connecting pipe 400, and sprays clean water to the storage space and the heat pump system 630 of the clothing processing equipment through the water outlet part 300, so that the clothes are more comfortable and soft after drying, and the evaporator and condenser are cleaned, so that the lint attached to the evaporator and condenser is discharged together with the outflow pipe of the condensed water under the flushing of the water system, thereby improving the heat exchange performance of the evaporator and condenser, and then improving the clothing drying efficiency and ensuring the clothing drying effect.
[0048] In addition, during the process of using the clothing processing equipment, the storage bin 610 needs to be opened and closed. The water storage component 100 is set in the storage bin 610 of the clothing processing equipment and is connected to the storage bin 610. The storage bin 610 can be used as a cover for the water storage component 100, making the water storage component 100 simple, convenient and quick to use, and thereby ensuring the water quality in the water storage component 100 to be clean, further ensuring the clothing drying effect.
[0049] In some embodiments, reference Figures 1 to 4 ,and Figure 8 As shown, a material storage box is provided in the material storage bin, and a sunken groove is provided at the bottom of the material storage bin 610, and the sunken groove forms a water storage part 100. The material storage box is detachably connected to the material storage bin 610, and the material storage box can be disassembled and assembled relative to the material storage bin 610 to open and close the material storage bin 610.
[0050] A material storage box is provided in the material storage bin 610, and the material storage box can be pulled out relative to the material storage bin 610 so that the user can add detergents, care agents, etc. into the material storage box, or when the material storage box is pulled out, the user can dump the sewage, dander, condensed water, etc. generated by the clothing processing equipment during the clothing drying process.
[0051] It will be appreciated that the material storage bin 610 is typically comprised of a housing member mounted on the laundry processing device, which is slidably connected to the material storage box to facilitate the entry and exit of the material storage box into and out of the material storage bin 610. A recessed groove is provided at the bottom of the material storage bin 610, opposite the material storage box. This recessed groove can be integrally formed during the manufacture of the material storage bin 610, resulting in a simple and compact structure, or the recessed groove can be detachably connected to the material storage bin 610. Furthermore, the recessed groove forms the water storage member 100, allowing for a larger opening of the water storage member 100, making it easier for the user to fill it with fresh water during use and also making it easier for the user to clean and wipe the water storage member 100, keeping it clean.
[0052] In other embodiments, a connection port is provided at the bottom of the storage bin 610, the water storage component 100 is detachably connected to the storage bin 610 through the connection port, and the storage box is opened and closed by pulling.
[0053] It will be appreciated that the connection port provided at the bottom of the storage bin 610 may be a threaded connection port or a snap-fit connection port, and the water storage unit 100 may be a bottle, cup, or box that connects to the threaded connection port or the snap-fit connection port. This arrangement allows the connection port to be smaller, which does not hinder the user's ability to add water to the water storage unit 100 while reducing the possibility of foreign matter and dust entering the water storage unit 100. Furthermore, the water storage unit 100 can be removed for thorough cleaning.
[0054] In a specific implementation, the storage box can be configured as a condensed water box, which is used to collect condensed water generated by the condenser of the heat pump system 630. This configuration can make the structure of the clothing treatment device more compact. Since the condensed water box is usually located on the upper part of the clothing treatment device body 600, it is more compatible with the user's height. Using the condensed water box as the storage box of this application can facilitate the user to add clean water to the water storage unit without having to bend or squat significantly, making the clothing care device more convenient to use and improving the user experience.
[0055] In some embodiments, reference Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the water system also includes a control valve 500. The pumping member 200 is connected to the control valve 500 through the connecting pipe 400. The control valve 500 is connected to each water outlet member 300 through the connecting pipe 400, so that the control valve 500 controls the on-off state between each water outlet member 300 and the pumping member 200.
[0056] Of the at least two water outlets 300, at least one is used to spray water onto the laundry in the drum 620 for better laundry care, and the other at least one is used to spray water onto the evaporator and condenser to reduce lint accumulation. A control valve 500 can be provided to control the connection between the pumping element 200 and different water outlets 300. This allows for flexible control of water flow from different water outlets 300 based on specific user needs, making the water system more convenient, flexible, and efficient.
[0057] In a specific implementation, the control valve 500 may be a solenoid valve, which can electrically control the water outlet of the water system and is more convenient to use.
[0058] And, refer to Figures 1 to 8 As shown, the connecting pipe 400 includes a first connecting pipe 410, a second connecting pipe 420, and at least two third connecting pipes 430. The first connecting pipe 410 connects the water storage member 100 and the inlet of the water pumping member 200. The second connecting pipe 420 connects the outlet of the water pumping member 200 and the inlet of the control valve 500. The outlets of the control valve 500 are connected to corresponding water outlet members 300 via third connecting pipes 430. This arrangement can simplify and compact the piping layout of the water system. To this end, the water pumping member 200 and the control valve 500 can be placed closer to the water storage member 100 to reduce the length of the first connecting pipe 410 and the second connecting pipe 420, thereby reducing the space occupied by the connecting pipe 400.
[0059] As for the third connecting pipe 430, it can be set according to the number of corresponding water outlet parts 300. For example, a water outlet part 300 is provided at the drum 620, and a two-way third connecting pipe 430 is correspondingly provided to connect one of the outlets of the control valve 500 and the water outlet part 300. If two water outlet parts 300 are provided at the heat pump system 630, a three-way third connecting pipe 430 can be correspondingly provided, so that one end of the third connecting pipe 430 is connected to the other outlet of the control valve 500, and the other two ends of the third connecting pipe 430 are respectively connected to the two water outlet parts 300, so that the control valve 500 is connected to the two water outlet parts 300 at the same time through the three-way third connecting pipe 430.
[0060] Alternatively, when more water outlet parts 300 are provided at the drum 620 or the heat pump system 630, a third connecting pipe 430 may also be provided, including a main pipe connected to the control valve 500, and branch pipes branched from the main pipe and connected to each water outlet part 300 at the same area position. This application does not impose any restrictions on this.
[0061] Further, refer to Figure 1 As shown, the water system further includes a controller, to which the pumping member 200 and the control valve 500 are both electrically connected. The controller is used to control the on / off state of the pumping member 200 and to control the control valve 500 to adjust the on / off state between each water outlet member 300 and the pumping member 200. The controller can control the operating state of the pumping member 200 and the on / off state of the control valve 500 to control whether the water system is operating and whether the water system is specifically spraying water to the drum 620 or the heat pump system 630.
[0062] And, refer to Figure 1 As shown, the water system provided in the embodiment of the present application further includes a control panel, which is electrically connected to the controller so that the controller controls the switch state and the on-off state according to the control panel.
[0063] The operation panel can be a control panel built into the main body 600 of the laundry processing device, on which control buttons corresponding to the water system are added, or it can be an additional control panel, and this application does not impose any restrictions on this. Such a configuration makes it easier for the user to intuitively control the operation of the water system. For example, a "care" button and a "self-cleaning" button can be set on the control panel. When the user clicks the "care" button, the pumping element 200 operates, and the control valve 500 connects the pumping element 200 and the water outlet element 300 located at the drum 620. When the user clicks the "self-cleaning" button, the pumping element 200 operates, and the control valve 500 connects the pumping element 200 and the water outlet element 300 located at the heat pump system 630. When the user clicks the "care" button and the "self-cleaning" button at the same time, the pumping element 200 operates, and the control valve 500 connects all the water outlet elements 300 at the same time.
[0064] In specific implementation, the water outlet 300 is an atomizing nozzle, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the water outlet part 300 includes a mounting part, a connecting part and a water outlet part arranged on the mounting part. The mounting part is used to connect to the clothing processing equipment, the connecting part is communicated with the water outlet part, the connecting part is used to connect to the connecting pipe 400, and the water outlet part is used to spray atomized cleaning water.
[0065] A mounting portion is provided to facilitate the secure installation of the water outlet member 300. The clothing treatment device has mounting locations both near the drum 620 and near the heat pump system 630. The mounting portions are fixedly connected to the mounting locations via fasteners such as bolts. A connection portion is provided on the side of the mounting portion facing away from the drum 620 or the heat pump system 630. This connection portion is configured to connect to the third connecting pipe 430. A water outlet is provided on the side of the mounting portion facing the drum 620 or the heat pump system 630. The water outlet communicates with the connection portion via the mounting portion, or directly with the connection portion, to spray atomized water into the drum 620 or the heat pump system 630. This allows for a more uniform spray of atomized water over a larger area, improving clothing care results and reducing lint accumulation on the evaporator and condenser surfaces.
[0066] Moreover, when the water outlet parts 300 are specifically set, at least three water outlet parts 300 are set, at least one water outlet part 300 is used to be set in the accommodating space to spray cleaning water onto the clothes in the accommodating space, and at least two water outlet parts 300 are used to be set at the heat pump system 630 to spray cleaning water onto the evaporator and condenser of the heat pump system 630 respectively.
[0067] Since the drum 620 can drive the clothes to turn continuously, at least one water outlet 300 is provided near the drum 620 in a stationary position relative to the clothes processing equipment. This allows the water outlet 300 to evenly spray water mist onto the clothes as they turn. However, the evaporator and condenser of the heat pump system 630 are stationary relative to the clothes processing equipment, and their surface structures are relatively complex. It is difficult to evenly and comprehensively spray the evaporator and condenser with only one water outlet 300. Therefore, at least two water outlets 300 are provided, each located at different positions relative to the evaporator and condenser, to spray water mist onto the evaporator and condenser from multiple angles and directions.
[0068] In addition, in some embodiments, the water system further includes a drainage assembly disposed within the clothing processing apparatus body 600 to drain water flowing through the heat pump system 630 out of the clothing processing apparatus body 600. This arrangement allows wastewater from flushing lint from the evaporator and condenser of the heat pump system 630 to be drained out of the clothing processing apparatus body 600 via the drainage assembly, preventing wastewater accumulation from affecting the operation of the evaporator and condenser.
[0069] In a specific implementation, the drainage assembly includes a water collecting member and a drainage member. The water collecting member is located below the heat pump system 630 to collect water flowing through the heat pump system 630. The drainage member is connected to the water collecting member to drain the water in the water collecting member.
[0070] Among them, the water collecting part is arranged below the heat pump system 630 to directly collect the sewage dripping from the condenser and evaporator. The water collecting part can be an additional water collecting tray or water collecting tank, or it can be a water collecting tray or water collecting tank that comes with the clothing processing device to collect condensed water on the evaporator surface. The drainage part can be a drainage pipe so that the drainage part can automatically discharge the sewage collected by the water collecting part out of the clothing processing device body 600. When the above-mentioned storage bin 610 is used to collect sewage and lint generated during the drying process of the clothing care device, the drainage part can also be a combination structure of a water pump and a water pipe. The water pump is connected to the water collecting part and the storage box in the storage bin 610 through the water pipe, and the sewage in the water collecting part is transported to the storage box. After the drying is completed, the user pours out the sewage in the storage box and fills clean water into the water storage part 100 at the same time.
[0071] It should be noted that references in this specification to "one embodiment," "an embodiment," "an exemplary embodiment," "some embodiments," and the like indicate that the described embodiment may include a particular feature, structure, or characteristic, but not necessarily every embodiment includes that particular feature, structure, or characteristic. Furthermore, such phrases do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment. Furthermore, when a particular feature, structure, or characteristic is described in conjunction with an embodiment, it is within the knowledge of those skilled in the art to implement such feature, structure, or characteristic in conjunction with other embodiments, whether explicitly described or not.
[0072] Generally speaking, terms should be understood, at least in part, based on the context in which they are used.
