[0033] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of this application more clear, the following further describes this application in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain this application and are not intended to limit this application.

[0034] It should be noted that when an element is referred to as being “fixed on” or “disposed on” another element, it may be directly on the other element or indirectly on the other element. When an element is referred to as being “connected to” another element, it may be directly connected to the other element or indirectly connected to the other element.

[0035] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of the technical features being referred to. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. Throughout the description of this application, "plurality" means two or more, unless otherwise specifically defined.

[0036] References to "one embodiment," "some embodiments," or "an embodiment" in this specification mean that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in conjunction with that embodiment is included in one or more embodiments of the present invention. Thus, phrases such as "in one embodiment," "in some embodiments," "in other embodiments," and "in other embodiments" appearing in various places in this specification do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, but rather mean "one or more, but not all, embodiments," unless otherwise specifically emphasized. Furthermore, in one or more embodiments, particular features, structures, or characteristics may be combined in any suitable manner.

[0037] As living standards improve, technology and product performance continue to advance, and household appliances are reducing household chores. For example, laundry, a labor-intensive process, involves washing and drying clothes. Traditional washing machines only wash, while drying clothes requires manual labor. Newly introduced laundry machines with drying functions can also dry clothes, significantly reducing the labor required for drying clothes.

[0038] In the related art, the drying module in a clothing processing device includes a moisture absorption and dehumidification component that absorbs water vapor and a heating component for dehydrating the moisture absorption and dehumidification component. The clothing processing device is provided with a regeneration air duct, which houses the heating component and part of the moisture absorption and dehumidification component. In the regeneration airflow direction within the regeneration air duct, part of the moisture absorption and dehumidification component is located downstream of the heating component. The heating component is used to heat the gas so that the gas blown toward the moisture absorption and dehumidification component is dry and high-temperature gas, thereby dehydrating the part of the moisture absorption and dehumidification component housed in the regeneration air duct, thereby achieving the recycling of the moisture absorption and dehumidification component. However, the current drying module has low operating efficiency, resulting in a long drying time for the clothing processing device.

[0039] It should be noted that the structure of the heater housing is one of the factors that affect the working efficiency of the drying module. In the related art, the axis of the air inlet on the heater housing is perpendicular to the axis of the air outlet, so the direction of the regeneration airflow blown into the heating chamber needs to turn ninety degrees before flowing out of the heating chamber from the air outlet. At present, the inner walls of the heating chamber are all straight-faced structures. After the regeneration airflow blows from the side into the heating chamber, the inner walls of the heating chamber can guide the regeneration airflow. Since the inner walls of the heating chamber are all straight-faced structures, the regeneration airflow will turn ninety degrees rapidly after hitting the inner wall of the heating chamber. The rapidly turning regeneration airflow will cause vortices, which will interfere with the flow direction and flow rate of the regeneration airflow and cause kinetic energy loss of the regeneration airflow, thereby affecting the working efficiency of the drying module.

[0040] In view of the above problems, the embodiments of the present application provide a heating component, a drying module and a clothing processing device based on the structure of the heater housing, aiming to solve the technical problem of low working efficiency of the drying module.

[0041] In order to illustrate the technical solution of the present application, the following description is given with reference to specific drawings and embodiments.

[0042] Please refer to Figure 1 In a first aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides a heating assembly 1 , comprising a heater housing 11 and a heater 12 .

[0043] The heater housing 11 has a heating chamber 111, an air inlet 112 connected to the heating chamber 111, and an air outlet 113 connected to the heating chamber 111. The heater housing 11 is used to be installed on the dehumidification component 2, and the air outlet 113 faces the dehumidification component 2. From the air inlet 112 to the air outlet 113, the side wall of the heating chamber 111 has a smooth structure; the heater 12 is accommodated in the heating chamber 111.

[0044] In the heating component 1 provided in the present application, since the side wall of the heating chamber 111 is in a smooth structure from the air inlet 112 to the air outlet 113, the heater housing 11 can smoothly change the flow direction of the regeneration airflow in the heating chamber 111 to avoid the generation of vortexes in the heating chamber 111 and the loss of kinetic energy of the regeneration airflow, so that the regeneration airflow can be efficiently blown through the heating chamber 111 to the moisture absorption and dehumidification component 2, thereby improving the working efficiency of the drying module.

[0045] Please refer to Figure 1 In some embodiments, the air inlet 112 and the air outlet 113 are located on both sides of the heater 12 .

[0046] In the above embodiment, in the flow direction of the regeneration airflow in the regeneration air duct, the air inlet 112 is located upstream of the heater 12, and the air outlet 113 is located downstream of the heater 12, so that the regeneration airflow flowing into the heating chamber 111 can fully contact the heater 12 to increase the temperature of the regeneration airflow flowing out through the air outlet 113, thereby improving the working efficiency of the drying module.

[0047] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some embodiments, the heater housing 11 includes an air guide plate 114 and a side plate 115. The side plate 115 and the air guide plate 114 enclose a heating chamber 111. The heating chamber 111 forms an air outlet 113 on the side away from the air guide plate 114. An air inlet 112 is provided on the side plate 115. From the air inlet 112 to the air outlet 113, the surface of the air guide plate 114 facing the heating chamber 111 has a smooth structure, and the side plate 115 is smoothly connected to the air guide plate 114.

[0048] When the heating component 1 in the above embodiment is installed on the dehumidification component 2, the dehumidification component 2 covers the air outlet 113, and the dehumidification component 2 and the air outlet 113 are both arranged opposite to the air guide plate 114. The regeneration airflow flowing into the heating chamber 111 through the air inlet 112 will flow along the air guide plate 114. Since the surface of the air guide plate 114 facing the heating chamber 111 from the air inlet 112 to the air outlet 113 is a smooth structure, the flow direction of the regeneration airflow in the heating chamber 111 can be slowly changed under the guidance of the air guide plate 114 to avoid the generation of vortexes in the heating chamber 111 and the loss of kinetic energy of the regeneration airflow, so that the regeneration airflow can be efficiently blown to the dehumidification component 2 through the heating chamber 111, thereby improving the working efficiency of the drying module.

[0049] In the above embodiment, since the side plate 115 is smoothly connected to the air guide plate 114 , the direction of the regeneration airflow flowing through the connection between the side plate 115 and the air guide plate 114 can be changed smoothly to avoid the generation of vortexes at the connection between the side plate 115 and the air guide plate 114 .

[0050] In some embodiments, the air guide plate 114 is an arc-shaped plate that protrudes away from the air outlet 113 .

[0051] By adopting the above technical solution, the arc-shaped plate can guide the regeneration airflow flowing into the heating chamber 111 through the air inlet 112, so that the flow direction of the regeneration airflow can be smoothly changed.

[0052] Please refer to Figure 3 In some embodiments, in a direction away from the air inlet 112 , at least a portion of the air guide plate 114 is tilted toward a direction close to the air outlet 113 .

[0053] By adopting the above technical solution, the inclined air guide plate 114 can guide the regeneration airflow flowing into the heating chamber 111 through the air inlet 112, so that the flow direction of the regeneration airflow can be smoothly changed.

[0054] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3In some embodiments, the side plate 115 comprises a first side wall plate 1151, a second side wall plate 1152, a third side wall plate 1153 and a fourth side wall plate 1154, which are sequentially connected along the circumference of the air deflector 114 and are all connected with the periphery of the air deflector 114, the first side wall plate 1151 and the second side wall plate 1152 are oppositely arranged, and the third side wall plate 1153 and the fourth side wall plate 1154 are oppositely arranged; the air inlet 112 is arranged on the first side wall plate 1151; the end of the first side wall plate 1151 away from the air deflector 114, the end of the second side wall plate 1152 away from the air deflector 114, the end of the third side wall plate 1153 away from the air deflector 114 and the end of the fourth side wall plate 1154 away from the air deflector 114 enclose the air outlet 113; in the direction from the first side wall plate 1151 to the second side wall plate 1152, the air deflector 114 comprises a plurality of bottom wall plates which are sequentially connected, and the bottom wall plate connected with the second side wall plate 1152 is arranged to be inclined to the direction close to the air outlet 113.

[0055] In the above embodiments, the bottom wall plate connected with the second side wall plate 1152 and the second side wall plate 1152 are arranged at an obtuse angle, so that the flow direction of the regenerative air flow can change smoothly at the connection between the air deflector 114 and the second side wall plate 1152.

[0056] Please refer to Figure 3 In some embodiments, the air deflector 114 comprises a first bottom wall plate 1141 and a second bottom wall plate 1142 which are connected with each other, the end of the first bottom wall plate 1141 away from the second bottom wall plate 1142 is connected with the first side wall plate 1151, the end of the second bottom wall plate 1142 away from the first bottom wall plate 1141 is connected with the second side wall plate 1152, and in the direction from the first side wall plate 1151 to the second side wall plate 1152, the second bottom wall plate 1142 is arranged to be inclined to the direction close to the air outlet 113.

[0057] In the above embodiments, the second bottom wall plate 1142 and the second side wall plate 1152 are arranged at an obtuse angle.

[0058] In some embodiments, the adjacent side wall plates are smoothly connected with each other, so that the flow direction of the regenerative air flow flowing through the connection between the adjacent side wall plates can change smoothly to avoid vortex at the connection between the adjacent side wall plates. For example Figure 3 As shown, the first bottom wall plate 1141 and the second bottom wall plate 1142 are smoothly connected, so that the flow direction of the regenerative air flow flowing through the connection between the first bottom wall plate 1141 and the second bottom wall plate 1142 can change smoothly to avoid vortex at the connection between the first bottom wall plate 1141 and the second bottom wall plate 1142.

[0059] Please refer to Figure 1 In some embodiments, the heating assembly 1 further comprises an air adjusting plate 13, the air adjusting plate 13 is accommodated in the heating cavity 111, the air inlet 112 and the air outlet 113 are located on opposite sides of the air adjusting plate 13, and a plurality of air holes 131 are formed in the air adjusting plate 13.

[0060] In the above embodiment, by arranging the air adjusting plate 13, the flow rate of the regeneration airflow flowing to the air outlet 113 can be adjusted, and the regeneration airflow can flow to the air outlet 113 more uniformly, so that the regeneration airflow can blow to the dehumidification and drying assembly 2 more uniformly, thereby affecting the working efficiency of the drying module.

[0061] It should be noted that the kinetic energy of the regeneration airflow at the air inlet 112 is greater than that of the regeneration airflow blowing to the second side wall plate 1152, so that the regeneration airflow at the air inlet 112 is more likely to flow to the air outlet 113, so that the regeneration airflow cannot flow to the air outlet 113 more uniformly, resulting in that the regeneration airflow cannot blow to the dehumidification and drying assembly 2 more uniformly, thereby affecting the working efficiency of the drying module.

[0062] In some embodiments, the density of the air holes 131 gradually increases in the direction away from the air inlet 112.

[0063] Through the above arrangement, the amount of the regeneration airflow at the air inlet 112 flowing to the air outlet 113 can be reduced, and the amount of the regeneration airflow blowing to the second side wall plate 1152 flowing to the air outlet 113 can be increased, so that the regeneration airflow can flow to the air outlet 113 more uniformly.

[0064] Please refer to Figure 1 In some embodiments, the heater 12 is located on the side of the air adjusting plate 13 away from the air deflector 114. That is, in the flow direction of the regeneration airflow in the regeneration air duct, the air adjusting plate 13 is located upstream of the heater 12. At this time, the heater 12 is closer to the dehumidification and drying assembly 2, and the air adjusting plate 13 guides the regeneration airflow flowing into the heating cavity 111 to blow to the heater 12 uniformly, so as to uniformly transmit the heat of the heater 12 to the dehumidification and drying assembly 2.

[0065] In some embodiments, the heater 12 is located between the air adjusting plate 13 and the air deflector 114. That is, in the flow direction of the regeneration airflow in the regeneration air duct, the air adjusting plate 13 is located downstream of the heater 12, at this time, the regeneration airflow can fully contact the heater 12, so as to improve the heating speed of the regeneration airflow, and make the temperature of the regeneration airflow more uniform, and then the heated regeneration airflow flows to the dehumidification and drying assembly 2 through the guidance of the air adjusting plate 13.

[0066] Please refer to Figure 4In some embodiments, the heating cavity 111 is provided with support ribs 116, and the air adjusting plate 13 is arranged on the support ribs 116.

[0067] In the above embodiments, the support ribs 116 can strengthen the strength of the air adjusting plate 13 and prevent the air adjusting plate 13 from being deformed.

[0068] Please refer to Figure 4 The air adjusting plate 13 and the support ribs 116 are both provided with locking holes, and a threaded fastener can pass through the locking holes of the air adjusting plate 13 and the locking holes of the support ribs 116 in sequence to lock and connect the air adjusting plate 13 and the support ribs 116.

[0069] Please refer to Figure 1 In some embodiments, the heating assembly 1 further comprises a temperature regulator 14, which is installed on the heater shell 11 and connected with the heater 12 to regulate the working temperature of the heater 12.

[0070] By setting the temperature regulator 14, the power of the heater 12 can be adjusted to increase or decrease the working temperature of the heater 12.

[0071] Please refer to Figure 1 In some embodiments, the temperature regulator 14 is arranged on the outer wall of the heater shell 11, and the heater 12 penetrates through the heater shell 11 and is connected with the temperature regulator 14.

[0072] In the above embodiments, the temperature regulator 14 is arranged on the outer wall of the heater shell 11, which can avoid damage caused by long-term exposure to high temperature and humid environment.

[0073] In some embodiments, a temperature detector can be arranged in the heating cavity 111 to detect the temperature of the regeneration airflow in the heating cavity 111, and the temperature regulator 14 can adjust the power of the heater 12 according to the detection result of the temperature detector to automatically adjust the power of the heater 12.

[0074] When the clothes treatment equipment performs a dehydration or drying process, if the detected temperature of the regeneration airflow in the heating cavity 111 is too low, the power of the heater 12 can be increased by the temperature regulator 14 to increase the working temperature of the heater 12, so as to increase the temperature of the regeneration airflow in the heating cavity 111; if the detected temperature of the regeneration airflow in the heating cavity 111 is too high, the power of the heater 12 can be decreased by the temperature regulator 14 to decrease the working temperature of the heater 12, so as to decrease the temperature of the regeneration airflow in the heating cavity 111; in this way, the working efficiency of the drying module can be improved, the drying time can be shortened, and energy can be saved.

[0075] In some embodiments, the air register 13 divides the heating cavity 111 into a temperature control area and a temperature regulation area, the temperature control area is in communication with the air outlet 113, and the temperature regulation area is in communication with the air inlet 112. The heater 12 is arranged in the temperature control area. Two temperature detectors are arranged. One temperature detector is arranged in the temperature regulation area and located at the air inlet 112. The other temperature detector is arranged in the temperature control area and located at the edge of the heating pipe 121, so that the temperature regulator 14 can accurately control the power of the heater 12 according to the temperature at different positions.

[0076] Please refer to Figure 4 In some embodiments, the heater 12 includes a multi-layer heating pipe 121. The total length of the heating pipe 121 in the heater 12 can be extended without occupying a large space in the heating cavity 111, thereby improving the heating efficiency of the regenerative gas flow.

[0077] Please refer to Figure 1 In some embodiments, the heating assembly 1 further includes a fixing member 15. The fixing member 15 is located on the side of the heating pipe 121 away from the support rib 116, and the fixing member 15 is fixedly connected to the support rib 116 to limit the heating pipe 121 between the fixing member 15 and the support rib 116.

[0078] The fixing member 15 and the support rib 116 are both provided with locking holes. A threaded fastener can pass through the locking holes of the fixing member 15 and the locking holes of the support rib 116 in sequence to lock and connect the fixing member 15 and the support rib 116.

[0079] Please refer to Figure 4 In some embodiments, the fixing member 15 includes a limiting portion 151 and a fixing portion 152. The locking holes are arranged on the fixing portion 152. A threaded fastener can pass through the locking holes of the fixing portion 152 and the locking holes of the support rib 116 in sequence to lock and connect the fixing member 15 and the support rib 116. The limiting portion 151 is provided with a semicircular hole matched with the heating pipe 121. The limiting portion 151 is located on the side of the heating pipe 121 away from the support rib 116, and the heating pipe 121 is limited in the semicircular hole.

[0080] In some embodiments, the limiting portion 151 includes two limiting portions 151 located on opposite sides of the fixing portion 152, so that one fixing member 15 can limit the positions of two heating pipes 121.

[0081] Please refer to Figure 5 The second aspect of the present application provides a drying module, which includes the moisture absorbing and removing assembly 2 and the heating assembly 1 of the first aspect of the present application.

[0082] The dehumidification assembly 2 includes a shell 21 and a dehumidification component (not shown) disposed in the shell 21 . The heater housing 11 is connected to the shell 21 , and the air outlet 113 faces at least a portion of the dehumidification component.

[0083] By applying the heating component 1 of the first embodiment described above to the drying module, the dehydration efficiency of the moisture absorption and dehumidification component 2 can be improved.

[0084] In the related art, the heater housing 11 and the moisture absorption and dehumidification component 2 are connected in such a way that the shell 21 blocks part of the air outlet 113, so that the shell 21 and the heater housing 11 are arranged alternately, and the threaded fasteners are sequentially passed through the heater housing 11 and the shell 21 to lock the heater housing 11 and the shell 21 together. In addition, a sealing ring needs to be installed at the connection between the heater housing 11 and the shell 21 to seal and prevent the loss of the regeneration airflow. The structure is complex and the installation is troublesome. In addition, when the heater 12 is located on the side of the wind shield away from the air guide plate 114, that is, in the flow direction of the regeneration airflow in the regeneration air duct, the heater 12 is located downstream of the air regulating plate 13. The distance between the heater 12 and the shell 21 is relatively close, so that the shell 21 may be melted and deformed due to high temperature.

[0085] In view of the above problems, please refer to Figure 6 In some embodiments, the shell 21 includes a main body 211 and a connecting portion 212 , the connecting portion 212 has a mounting hole 2121 , the heater shell 11 is inserted into the mounting hole 2121 , and the dehumidifying component at least partially blocks the mounting hole 2121 .

[0086] By adopting the above technical solution, the connection structure between the heater housing 11 and the housing 21 can be simplified, making installation easier.
