[0033] As mentioned above, in the related art, how to arrange the washing tub and other components in a limited space within a laundry washing machine is an important research direction in this field.

[0034] In view of this, if Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the present disclosure provides a clothes washing device, including a box body 30, a first drum 10 and a second drum 20, the first drum 10 and the second drum 20 are arranged in the box body 30, and a front panel 31 of the box body 30 is provided with a first opening 11 and a second opening 21, where the first opening 11 and the second opening 21 are clothes loading openings located on the front panel 31, the first opening 11 is connected to the open opening of the first drum 10 (i.e., the opening on the first drum 10 for taking clothes out and putting clothes in), and the second opening 21 is connected to the open opening of the second drum 20 (i.e., the opening on the second drum 20 for taking clothes out and putting clothes in), that is, the first opening 11 corresponds to the position of the open opening of the first drum 10 on the front panel 31, and the second opening 21 corresponds to the position of the open opening of the second drum 20 on the front panel 31, and each of the first opening 11 and the second opening 21 can be provided with a door panel for opening or closing the first opening 11, and the angle θ between the line connecting the center of the first opening 11 and the center of the second opening 21 and the horizontal direction is 45°~85°. The center of the first opening 11 may be the intersection of the axis of the first tube 10 and the first opening 11 . When the first opening 11 is circular, the center of the first opening 11 may be the center of the circle of the first opening 11 .

[0035] In the above-mentioned clothes washing device, the box 30 can serve as the outer shell of the clothes washing device. The box 30 can be used to accommodate various components in the clothes washing device, and can also provide support and fixation for some components in the clothes washing device (such as the washing drum, etc.).

[0036] In the above-mentioned laundry washing machine, the first drum 10 and the second drum 20 can be used to accommodate laundry, and according to the configuration of the laundry washing machine, the laundry accommodated in the first drum 10 and the second drum 20 can be washed, dried, etc.

[0037] By means of the above technical solution, the angle between the line connecting the center of the first opening 11 and the center of the second opening 21 and the horizontal direction is set to 45° to 85°, which is equivalent to making the first drum 10 and the second drum 20 staggered in the height direction and the left and right direction (width direction) of the clothes washing device, which is conducive to the first drum 10 and the second drum 20 being located in a reasonable position in the box body 30, and forming a larger accommodating space for accommodating other components (such as an electric control board, a drying mechanism, etc.) in the clothes washing device after the first drum 10 and the second drum 20 are arranged in the box body 30, and the first opening 1 can be made to be staggered in the height direction and the left and right direction (width direction) of the clothes washing device. The center of the first opening 11 and the center of the second opening 21 have an appropriate interval in the left-right direction of the box body 30, and the center of the first opening 11 and the center of the second opening 21 have an appropriate interval in the height direction of the box body 30. On the one hand, it is beneficial to balance the weight of the clothes washing machine, on the other hand, it is beneficial to reduce the vibration of the clothes washing machine during operation, and on the other hand, it is beneficial to reduce or avoid the interference between the door panel of the first opening 11 and the door panel of the second opening 21, and it is also beneficial to reduce or avoid the obstruction of the second opening 21 by the door panel of the first opening 11 and the obstruction of the first opening 11 by the door panel of the second opening 21.

[0038] Optionally, the angle θ between the line connecting the center of the first opening 11 and the center of the second opening 21 and the horizontal direction can be 55° to 65°. For example, the angle θ between the line connecting the center of the first opening 11 and the center of the second opening 21 and the horizontal direction can be 60°. Such an arrangement is beneficial for further balancing the weight of the laundry washing device, further reducing vibration during operation of the laundry washing device, further reducing or avoiding obstruction between the door panel of the first opening 11 and the door panel of the second opening 21, further reducing or avoiding interference between the door panel of the first opening 11 and the door panel of the second opening 21, further reducing or avoiding obstruction of the second opening 21 by the door panel of the first opening 11, and further reducing obstruction of the first opening 11 by the door panel of the second opening 21. In addition, considering the limited space of the housing 30, when the angle θ is in the range of 55° to 65°, more space can be provided for the first drum 10 and the second drum 20 while ensuring the balance of the housing 30, thereby expanding the volume of the first drum 10 and the second drum 20 and improving the cleaning ratio of the clothes washing device (i.e., the washing machine).

[0039] It should be noted that, in the present disclosure, the first drum 10 and the second drum 20 can be any one of a drying drum, a washing drum and a washer-drying drum.

[0040] For example, when the first drum 10 is a washing drum, the first drum 10 may have a washing function, so that the first drum 10 can wash the laundry in the first drum 10 .

[0041] When the first drum 10 is a washing and drying drum, the first drum 10 may have both washing and drying functions. The first drum 10 can wash and dry the laundry in the first drum 10 .

[0042] Similarly, when the second drum 20 is a washing drum, the second drum 20 may have a washing function, so that the second drum 20 can wash the laundry in the second drum 20 .

[0043] When the second drum 20 is a washing and drying drum, the second drum 20 can have both washing and drying functions. The second drum 20 can wash and dry the laundry in the second drum 20 .

[0044] By combining the functions of the first drum 10 and the second drum 20, the above-mentioned clothing washing device can have the functions of separate washing (such as one drum is used to wash outer clothes, and the other drum is used to wash underwear and other close-fitting clothes, etc.), separate drying or washing and drying in one.

[0045] The present disclosure does not limit the structure of the box 30. The box 30 can be an integrally formed box 30 or a box 30 formed by splicing multiple boards. Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the housing 30 includes a front panel 31 and rear side panels 32 spaced apart in the front-to-back direction, a left side panel 33 and a right side panel 34 spaced apart in the left-to-right direction, and a top panel 35 and a bottom panel 36 spaced apart in the top-to-bottom direction. The openings for the first and second drums 10, 20 are both provided on the front panel 31, allowing laundry to be placed in and taken out through the front panel 31, and enhancing the aesthetics of the laundry washing machine.

[0046] In addition, the front panel 31, the rear side panel 32, the left side panel 33, the right side panel 34, the top panel 35 and the bottom panel 36 can also together enclose a space for installing the first tube 10 and the second tube 20. The front panel 31 here is the front side panel of the box body, and the front panel 31, the rear side panel 32, the left side panel 33, the right side panel 34, the top panel 35 and the bottom panel 36 can protect the components arranged in the box body 30.

[0047] In the present disclosure, the first drum 10 and the second drum 20 can be arranged in any direction in the box body 30, as long as the first drum 10 and the second drum 20 can meet the washing requirements of the laundry. For example, at least one of the first drum 10 and the second drum 20 extends horizontally along the front-to-back direction of the box body 30, and at least one of the first drum 10 and the second drum 20 can also extend horizontally along the front-to-back direction of the box body 30. This disclosure does not limit this. As an embodiment of the present disclosure, Figure 1As shown, at least one of the first drum 10 and the second drum 20 extends horizontally along the front-to-back direction of the box body 30. In other words, the first drum 10 and the second drum 20 are horizontally arranged in the box body 30. On the one hand, the horizontally arranged first drum 10 and the second drum 20 can make the clothes to be washed evenly distributed in the first drum 10 and the second drum 20 under the action of gravity, thereby improving the washing effect of the clothes to be washed. On the other hand, the horizontally arranged first drum 10 and the second drum 20 are structurally stable, which is conducive to improving the stability and safety performance of the clothing washing equipment.

[0048] As another embodiment of the present disclosure, at least one of the first drum 10 and the second drum 20 is arranged at an angle, with the front end of the first drum 10, where the opening is located, being higher than the rear end of the first drum 10, and / or the front end of the second drum 20, where the opening is located, being higher than the rear end of the second drum 20. This arrangement facilitates the user to take clothes into or out of the first drum 10 or the second drum 20 in a more natural posture.

[0049] The present disclosure does not limit the size relationship between the first tube 10 and the second tube 20. As an embodiment of the present disclosure, Figure 1 As shown, the diameter of the second barrel 20 is larger than that of the first barrel 10. Since the diameter of the second barrel 20 is larger than that of the first barrel 10, the capacity of the second barrel 20 can be made larger than that of the first barrel 10. In this way, by reducing the diameter of the first barrel 10, a larger installation space can be provided for the second barrel 20, so that the second barrel 20 can meet the demand for large-capacity storage.

[0050] For example, the second drum 20 may be a main washing drum for washing adult clothing or outerwear, and the first drum 10 may be a small washing drum for washing underwear or children's clothing.

[0051] Alternatively, as Figure 1 As shown, the first drum 10 can be located above and to the side of the second drum 20, that is, the first drum 10 is above the second drum 20 and is staggered with the second drum 20 in the width direction of the laundry washing machine. In other words, the second drum 20 can be arranged below and to the side of the first drum 10. By arranging the second drum 20 with a larger mass below and to the side of the first drum 10 with a smaller mass, the overall center of gravity of the laundry washing machine can be lowered, which is beneficial to improving the stability of the washing machine.

[0052] The present disclosure does not limit the specific dimensions of the first drum 10 and the second drum 20. As one embodiment of the present disclosure, the diameter of the first drum 10 may be 150 mm to 200 mm, and / or the diameter of the second drum 20 may be 500 mm to 545 mm. This configuration is advantageous in that both the first drum 10 and the second drum 20 have good functionality while making the laundry washing machine smaller in size.

[0053] Optionally, the diameter of the first drum 10 may be 175 mm to 185 mm, and / or the diameter of the second drum 20 may be 533 mm to 543 mm. This arrangement is advantageous in that both the first drum 10 and the second drum 20 have good functionality while further reducing the size of the laundry washing machine.

[0054] The present disclosure does not limit the distance between the center of the first opening 11 and the center of the second opening 21. As one embodiment of the present disclosure, the length of the line connecting the center of the first opening 11 and the center of the second opening 21 can be 345mm to 760mm. Alternatively, the length of the line connecting the center of the first opening 11 and the center of the second opening 21 can be 367mm to 377mm. This configuration helps reduce or avoid interference between the door panels of the first opening 11 and the second opening 21 during opening and closing, and helps prevent the door panel of the first opening 11 from obstructing the second opening 21, and also helps prevent the door panel of the second opening 21 from obstructing the first opening 11. In addition, it also helps reduce the conduction and superposition of vibrations between the second tube 20 and the first tube 10.

[0055] Alternatively, as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the first drum 10 is located above the second drum 20, and the clothing washing device also includes a display panel assembly 50, which is installed at the upper end of the front panel 31, wherein the distance between the lower end surface of the display panel assembly 50 and the center of the first opening 11 is a first distance L1, and the range of the first distance L1 is 70mm~110mm.

[0056] This arrangement allows for a reasonable spacing between the lower end of the display panel assembly 50 and the first drum 10, ensuring that the display panel assembly 50 can be properly installed while also not hindering the installation of the first drum 10. This prevents installation problems such as interference between the display panel assembly 50 and the first drum 10. This improves the space utilization of the laundry machine, increases the compactness of the laundry machine, facilitates the arrangement of other components of the laundry machine, and also facilitates the arrangement of the display panel assembly 50.

[0057] Optionally, the first distance L1 may be in the range of 80 mm to 100 mm, for example, 90 mm. This configuration can further improve the space utilization and compactness of the laundry machine, further facilitate the arrangement of other components of the laundry machine, and further facilitate the arrangement of the display panel assembly 50.

[0058] The present disclosure does not limit the center distance between the top plate 35 of the box body 30 and the first opening 11. As an embodiment, Figure 3As shown, the first tube 10 is located above and to the side of the second tube 20 , wherein the distance between the top plate 35 of the box body 30 and the center of the first opening 11 is a second distance L2 , and the range of the second distance L2 is 95 mm to 150 mm.

[0059] This arrangement allows for a reasonable spacing between the top plate 35 and the first drum 10, ensuring that the top plate 35 does not interfere with the first drum 10 while also not hindering the installation of the first drum 10. This improves the space utilization of the laundry machine, increases the compactness of the laundry machine, and facilitates the arrangement of other components of the laundry machine.

[0060] Optionally, the distance between the top end of the first tube 10 and the top plate 35 may be in the range of 20 mm to 50 mm. For example, the distance between the top end of the first tube 10 and the top plate 35 may be 33 mm.

[0061] The present disclosure does not limit the center distance between the left side plate 33 and the right side plate 34 of the box body 30 and the first opening 11. As an embodiment, Figure 3 As shown, the first opening 11 is closer to the right side panel 34 of the housing 30 than the second opening 21, and the distance from the center of the first opening 11 to the right side panel 34 is 100 mm to 265 mm, for example, 114 mm. Alternatively, the first opening 11 is closer to the left side panel 33 of the housing 30 than the second opening 21, and the distance from the center of the first opening 11 to the left side panel 33 is 100 mm to 265 mm. This arrangement ensures a reasonable spacing between the left and right sides panels 33, 34, and the first drum 10, ensuring that the left and right sides panels 33, 34 do not interfere with the first drum 10 while also ensuring that the installation of the first drum 10 is not hindered. This improves the space utilization and compactness of the laundry machine, and facilitates the arrangement of other components of the laundry machine.
