[0062] As described in the background, in the related art, the liquid detergent dispensing method of the laundry treatment apparatus is that the detergent is extracted from the soap box by the automatic dispensing pump and then enters the water distribution plate. The detergent is mixed with water in the water distribution plate to form a mixed solution, and the mixed solution can enter the washing chamber of the drum through the rubber pipe, and then the liquid detergent is dissolved by relying on the rotation of the drum to stir and slowly generate foam. However, because the water flow is rapid, the water flow can quickly take the detergent out of the water distribution plate, and the detergent and water cannot be fully mixed in the water distribution plate, the mixed solution enters the drum to slowly generate foam, which affects the washing effect.
[0063] Therefore, the laundry treatment apparatus provided by the embodiments of the present application includes a cabinet, a drum assembly, and a dispensing assembly. The cabinet is configured as an outer shell of the laundry treatment apparatus. The drum assembly is arranged in the cabinet and forms a washing chamber 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 cabinet. The soap box has a storage chamber for storing detergent and is used for feeding the detergent into the water inlet box. The water inlet box is provided with a first flow channel, a second flow channel, and a mixed flow channel. The first end of the first flow channel is used for feeding water and detergent at least. The second end of the first flow channel is provided with a premixing part. The premixing part is provided with a dispersion member. The dispersion member includes a flow distribution member and a plurality of flow guide members. The flow distribution member is used for distributing water and detergent from the first flow channel at least. The plurality of flow guide members are used for guiding water and detergent from the flow distribution member at least. The first end of the second flow channel is used for feeding water at least. The water inlet end of the mixed flow channel is in communication with the premixing part and the second end of the second flow channel. The water outlet end of the mixed flow channel is in communication with the washing chamber. The mixed flow channel is used for mixing water and detergent from the premixing part and water from the second flow channel at least. Water and detergent in the first flow channel can be preliminarily mixed in the premixing part. Water and detergent in the premixing part are mixed again after being distributed by the flow distribution member and guided by the plurality of flow guide members, so that water and detergent in the premixing part are uniformly mixed. The mixed solution in the premixing part and water from the second flow channel can be mixed again in the mixed flow channel. Water fed into the water inlet box is mixed with the detergent twice. Water and detergent preliminarily mixed are mixed again after being distributed by the flow distribution member and guided by the plurality of flow guide members, so that water and detergent can be fully mixed in the water inlet box. The mixed solution enters the washing chamber to quickly generate foam, thereby improving the washing effect.

The first layer of flow guiding members 262 can be close to the first flow channel 230, and the second layer of flow guiding members 262 can be close to the mixed flow channel 250 to improve the guiding and dividing effect of the flow guiding members 262.
[0105] In some embodiments of the present application, the extension directions of at least two flow guiding members 262 of the plurality of flow guiding members 262 form an included angle, so that the at least two flow guiding members 262 guide the mixed solution of water and detergent in different directions to improve the uniformity of mixing.
[0106] In some embodiments of the present application, the plurality of flow guides 262 can be flat or curved. For example, the curved flow guides can form a flow guide 263. The flow guide 263 can guide the mixed solution of water and detergent in different directions to improve the mixing uniformity.
[0107] Referring to Figures 4-7 In some embodiments of the present application, the cross-sectional area of the mixing channel 250 can gradually decrease from the water inlet end to the water outlet end of the mixing channel 250, in a plane perpendicular to the extension direction of the mixing channel 250.
