[0060] As described in the background art, in the related art, the liquid laundry treatment agent in the laundry treatment device is dispensed by extracting the laundry treatment agent from the soap box through an automatic dispensing pump and then entering the water diversion plate. After the laundry treatment agent is mixed with water in the water diversion plate, a mixed liquid is formed. The mixed liquid can then enter the drum through a rubber tube, and then the liquid laundry treatment agent is dissolved by the rotation and stirring of the drum, and foam is slowly generated. However, due to the rapid water flow, the water flow can quickly flush the laundry treatment agent out of the water diversion plate, and the laundry treatment agent and water cannot be fully mixed in the water diversion plate, resulting in a slow foam generation after the mixed solution enters the drum, which affects the washing effect.

[0061] In view of this, the clothing treatment device of the embodiment of the present application includes a casing, a drum assembly and a dispensing assembly, the casing is constructed as the outer shell of the clothing treatment device; the drum assembly is arranged in the casing, and a washing chamber is formed in the drum assembly; the dispensing assembly includes a water inlet box and a soap box, the water inlet box is arranged outside the drum assembly and in the casing; the soap box has a storage chamber for storing clothing treatment agent, which is used to pass clothing treatment agent into the water inlet box; the water inlet box includes a box body, a box cover and a connecting structure; the box body and the box cover are connected by a connecting structure, and the box cover, the box body and the connecting structure are at least used to enclose a first channel, the first channel is connected to the washing chamber, and the first channel is provided with a rapid flow section; the box body is provided with a receiving tank, which is at least used to receive washing liquid; the connecting structure is used to form a rapid flow section, and at least part of the connecting structure faces the receiving tank; the connecting structure is provided with a connecting hole, the receiving tank is connected to the rapid flow section through the connecting hole, and the clothing treatment agent in the receiving tank enters the rapid flow section through the connecting hole. When water entering the first channel flows through the rapid flow section, the flow rate increases while the pressure decreases, thereby generating an adsorption effect. This draws the laundry treatment agent in the holding tank through the connecting hole into the rapid flow section, causing the laundry treatment agent drawn into the rapid flow section to mix with the water flowing through the rapid flow section. The continuous mixing of the water flow with the laundry treatment agent improves the mixing effect of the water and laundry treatment agent, allowing the mixed solution of water and laundry treatment agent to quickly generate foam after entering the washing chamber, thereby improving the washing effect.

[0110] In some embodiments of the present application, the connecting structure 203 is provided with a connecting hole 2031 , and the receiving tank 2011 is connected to the rapid flow section 2041 through the connecting hole 2031 , and the clothing treatment agent in the receiving tank 2011 enters the rapid flow section 2041 through the connecting hole 2031 .

[0111] When the water flowing into the first channel 204 flows through the rapid flow section 2041, the flow velocity is increased to form a high-speed water flow, and the water flow pressure is reduced, thereby producing an adsorption effect, thereby sucking the washing liquid in the holding tank 2011 into the rapid flow section 2041 through the connecting hole 2031, so that the clothing treatment agent sucked into the rapid flow section 2041 is mixed with the water flowing through the rapid flow section 2041.

[0112] In some embodiments of the present application, the cross-sectional area of ​​the rapid flow section 2041 can gradually decrease from the water inlet end of the rapid flow section 2041 to the water outlet end of the rapid flow section 2041, taking a plane perpendicular to the extension direction of the rapid flow section 2041 as a cross section, to reduce the pressure at the water outlet end of the rapid flow section 2041. The extension direction of the rapid flow section 2041 is the direction from the water inlet end to the water outlet end of the rapid flow section 2041. The pressure at the water outlet end of the rapid flow section 2041 is lower than the pressure at the water inlet end of the rapid flow section 2041. When water flowing into the first channel 204 passes through the rapid flow section 2041, the flow velocity increases, forming a high-speed water flow, and the water pressure decreases, thereby generating an adsorption effect.

[0113] In some embodiments of the present application, the water inlet end of the rapid flow section 2041 can be the end of the rapid flow section 2041 close to the water inlet hole 2012, and the water outlet end of the rapid flow section 2041 can be the end of the rapid flow section 2041 away from the water inlet hole 2012.

[0114] In some embodiments of the present application, with a plane perpendicular to the extension direction of the rapid flow section 2041 as the cross-section, the cross-sectional area of ​​the rapid flow section 2041 from the water inlet end to the water outlet end of the rapid flow section 2041 can be equal.

[0115] In some embodiments of the present application, the cross-sectional shape of the rapid flow section 2041 may be circular or rectangular, taking a plane perpendicular to the extension direction of the rapid flow section 2041 as a cross-sectional shape.

[0119] In some embodiments of the present application, the pressure at the second end of the contraction section 2042 is lower than the pressure at the first end of the contraction section 2042 . When the water flowing into the first channel 204 flows through the contraction section 2042 , the flow rate gradually increases while the pressure gradually decreases.

[0120] In some embodiments of the present application, the cross-sectional shape of the contraction section 2042 may be circular or rectangular, taking a plane perpendicular to the extension direction of the contraction section 2042 as a cross-section.

[0122] In some embodiments of the present application, the first end of the mixing section 2043 may be an end close to the water inlet 2012, and the second end of the mixing section 2043 may be an end away from the water inlet 2012. The washing liquid drawn into the rapid flow section 2041 and the water flowing through the rapid flow section 2041 flow into the mixing section 2043 and are further mixed within the mixing section 2043.

[0123] See also Figure 7-10 In some embodiments of the present application, with a plane perpendicular to the extension direction of the mixing section 2043 as the cross-section, the cross-sectional area of ​​the mixing section 2043 gradually increases from the first end of the mixing section 2043 to the second end of the mixing section 2043, wherein the extension direction of the mixing section 2043 is the extension direction from the water inlet end to the water outlet end of the mixing section 2043.

[0124] In some embodiments of the present application, the cross-sectional shape of the mixing section 2043 may be circular or rectangular, taking a plane perpendicular to the extending direction of the mixing section 2043 as a cross-section.

[0125] See also Figure 7-10 In some embodiments of the present application, the first channel 204 may include a connected contraction section 2042, a rapid flow section 2041, and a mixing section 2043. The contraction section 2042, the rapid flow section 2041, and the mixing section 2043 may be connected in sequence. Water entering the first channel 204 through the water inlet 2012 may flow through the contraction section 2042, the rapid flow section 2041, and the mixing section 2043 in sequence, and then flow out of the mixing section 2043.

[0127] In some embodiments of the present application, the contraction section 2042 can be connected to the rapid flow section 2041. The connection between the contraction section 2042 and the rapid flow section 2041 can be smooth, which can reduce the resistance encountered during water flow and facilitate the smooth flow of water in the contraction section 2042 into the rapid flow section 2041.

[0128] In some embodiments of the present application, the rapid flow section 2041 can be connected to the mixing section 2043. The connection between the mixing section 2043 and the rapid flow section 2041 can be smoothly transitioned, thereby reducing the resistance encountered during water flow and facilitating the smooth flow of water in the rapid flow section 2041 into the mixing section 2043.

[0129] See also Figure 7-10 In some embodiments of the present application, the first channel 204 extends from the water inlet to the water outlet of the first channel 204. In the direction of extension of the first channel 204, the length of the contraction section 2042 can be less than or equal to the length of the rapid flow section 2041. This allows the water in the first channel 204 to accelerate in a short period of time when flowing through the contraction section 2042.

[0130] In some embodiments of the present application, the central axes of the contraction section 2042, the rapid flow section 2041, and the mixing section 2043 may be collinear. The direction from the contraction section 2042, the rapid flow section 2041 to the mixing section 2043 may be the extension direction of the first channel 204.

[0131] In some embodiments of the present application, the length of the rapid flow section 2041 in the extension direction of the first channel 204 can be less than or equal to the length of the mixing section 2043. This facilitates the rapid flow section 2041 to draw the cleaning liquid through the connecting hole 2031. This facilitates the mixing of water and cleaning liquid within the mixing section 2043.

[0132] See also Figure 7-Figure 8 In some embodiments of the present application, the side of the connecting structure 203 facing away from the rapid flow section 2041 is covered by the receiving tank 2011. The connecting hole 2031 of the connecting structure 203 can be connected to the receiving tank 2011, so that the washing liquid in the receiving tank 2011 can enter the rapid flow section 2041 through the connecting hole 2031 and mix with the water in the rapid flow section 2041.

[0133] In some embodiments of the present application, in the extension direction of the first channel 204 , the extension length of the connecting structure 203 is greater than the extension length of the receiving groove 2011 , so that the side of the connecting structure 203 facing away from the rapid flow section 2041 can be covered by the receiving groove 2011 .

[0134] In some embodiments of the present application, the side of the connecting structure 203 facing away from the rapid flow section 2041 is detachably connected to the box body 201, which can facilitate connection and disassembly of the connecting structure 203 and the box body 201.

[0135] See also Figure 5-Figure 6 In some embodiments of the present application, the box cover 202, the box body 201 and the connecting structure 203 are used to at least enclose a second channel. The second channel can be used for the circulation and temporary storage of liquid laundry treatment agent.

[0136] In some embodiments of the present application, the second channel is connected to the receiving tank 2011. The laundry treatment agent introduced into the second channel through the soap box can flow into the receiving tank 2011, which can facilitate the laundry treatment agent in the receiving tank 2011 to enter the rapid flow section 2041 through the connecting hole 2031.

[0137] In some embodiments of the present application, the second channel may include a laundry treatment agent inlet area 2051. A laundry treatment agent inlet may be provided on the laundry treatment agent inlet area 2051 to facilitate the soap box to introduce the laundry treatment agent into the second channel. The soap box may uniformly introduce the laundry treatment agent into the laundry treatment agent inlet area 2051, and the amount of laundry treatment agent supplied may be limited by limiting the supply time.

[0138] See also Figure 5 In some embodiments of the present application, the laundry treatment agent inlet may include one or more laundry treatment agent inlets, including one or more laundry liquid inlet, softener inlet, and disinfectant inlet.

[0139] In some embodiments of the present application, the second channel may include a laundry treatment agent flow area 2052. The laundry treatment agent flow area 2052 may be in communication with the laundry treatment agent inlet area 2051. The laundry treatment agent entering the laundry treatment agent inlet area 2051 may enter the laundry treatment agent flow area 2052.

[0140] See also Figure 5 In some embodiments of the present application, the laundry treating agent flow area 2052 may be in communication with the receiving tank 2011 . The laundry treating agent in the laundry treating agent flow area 2052 may enter the receiving tank 2011 .

[0141] In some embodiments of the present application, the second channel may include a temporary storage area 2053 for laundry treatment agent. The temporary storage area 2053 may be connected to the receiving tank 2011. As the soap box continuously introduces laundry treatment agent into the laundry treatment agent introduction area 2051, the laundry treatment agent enters the receiving tank 2011 through the laundry treatment agent flow area 2052. The laundry treatment agent within the receiving tank 2011 is drawn into the rapid flow section 2041 through the connecting hole 2031, causing the laundry treatment agent drawn into the rapid flow section 2041 to initially mix with the water flowing through the rapid flow section 2041.

[0142] When the receiving tank 2011 is filled with the clothes treating agent, the clothes treating agent overflowing from the receiving tank 2011 will enter the clothes treating agent temporary storage area 2053 and be temporarily stored.

[0143] In some embodiments of the present application, a plurality of partition ribs may be provided in the laundry treatment agent temporary storage area 2053, so that a curved temporary storage area can be formed inside the laundry treatment agent temporary storage area 2053. After the laundry treatment agent enters the laundry treatment agent temporary storage area 2053, it can flow along the curved temporary storage area.

[0144] In some embodiments of the present application, the multiple barrier ribs in the clothing treatment agent temporary storage area 2053 can serve to improve the strength of the water inlet box 200.

[0145] In some embodiments of the present application, the laundry treatment agent flow area 2052 and the laundry treatment agent temporary storage area 2053 are vertically higher than the receiving tank 2011. After the laundry treatment agent is no longer introduced into the soap box, the laundry treatment agent remaining in the laundry treatment agent flow area 2052 and the laundry treatment agent temporary storage area 2053 can also flow smoothly into the receiving tank 2011, thereby improving the accuracy of laundry treatment agent dispensing.

[0146] See also Figure 7-10 In some embodiments of the present application, when the box body 201 and the box cover 202 are fixed by the connecting structure 203, the first channel 204 can be located above the receiving tank 2011. The connecting structure 203 can be conveniently provided between the first channel 204 and the receiving tank 2011, so that the laundry treatment agent in the receiving tank 2011 is sucked into the rapid flow section 2041 through the connecting hole 2031 of the connecting structure 203.
