Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of clothing processing equipment, and in particular to a clothing processing device and a transport bolt. Background Technology

[0002] Because the drum is not completely fixed within the garment processing equipment, it is susceptible to swaying and collisions with other components during packaging, transportation, or handling, potentially causing damage. In related technologies, using transport rods to secure the drum and box during transport is cumbersome, causing inconvenience for assembly and disassembly. Furthermore, disassembly exposes mounting holes, affecting aesthetics and allowing dust to enter the box. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of this, embodiments of this application provide a garment processing device and a transport bolt, which is beneficial to improving the efficiency of disassembling and assembling the transport bolt.

[0004] In view of the above, the first aspect of this application provides a garment processing device, the garment processing device comprising:

[0005] A barrel assembly, wherein the barrel assembly is provided with a plug-in portion having a plug-in hole;

[0006] The box body has a through hole, and the barrel assembly is disposed inside the box body;

[0007] The transport bolt includes a fastener and a crimping member. The fastener includes a fixing rod that passes through the through hole and the insertion hole along a first direction for securing the barrel assembly. The crimping member includes a stop surface located outside the end of the fixing rod facing away from the first direction for restricting movement of the fixing rod away from the first direction. The projection of the crimping member along the first direction onto the housing at least partially covers the through hole.

[0008] In some embodiments, the projection of the crimping member onto the housing along a first direction completely covers the through hole; both the fixing rod and the crimping member are detachably connected to the housing.

[0009] In some embodiments, the crimping member has a body portion that protrudes and extends away from a first direction, the body portion being provided with a receiving cavity, the end of the fixing rod facing away from the first direction being at least partially received in the receiving cavity, and the surface of the body portion facing the first direction forming the stop surface.

[0010] In some embodiments, the crimping member is provided with a first snap-fit ​​portion, and the housing is provided with a first snap-fit ​​hole. The first snap-fit ​​portion engages with the first snap-fit ​​hole to fix the crimping member to the housing.

[0011] In some embodiments, the first snap-fit ​​portion includes a locking claw, the locking claw having an insertion portion extending toward a first direction and a locking member extending from one end of the insertion portion toward a second direction, the second direction being perpendicular to the first direction; the insertion portion is adapted to be inserted into the first snap-fit ​​hole, and the first snap-fit ​​portion is adapted to be snapped and fixed with the edge of the first snap-fit ​​hole after the crimping member is rotated by a preset angle.

[0012] In some embodiments, the fastener is provided with a limiting portion, which is sleeved on and connected to the fixing rod. The limiting portion is at least partially accommodated in the receiving cavity. The size of the limiting portion is not less than the opening size of the through hole, and the limiting portion is located on the outside of the through hole opposite to the first direction to prevent the fixing rod from moving toward the first direction.

[0013] In some embodiments, the fastener includes a sealing portion connected to the limiting portion, the sealing portion extending from the limiting portion toward the first direction, the size of the sealing portion not greater than the opening size of the through hole, and the sealing portion adapted to be inserted into the through hole and to seal the through hole.

[0014] In some embodiments, the fixing rod has an abutment portion at its end facing away from the first direction, the abutment portion being adapted to be stopped by the stop surface, and the fixing member further includes a washer sleeved on the fixing rod, the washer being sandwiched between the limiting portion and the abutment portion, and the rigidity of the washer being greater than that of the limiting portion.

[0015] In some embodiments, the main body is provided with a flange at one end facing the housing, the first snap-fit ​​part is provided on the flange, the flange is provided with a protrusion, and the housing is provided with a positioning hole. When the first snap-fit ​​part is engaged with the first snap-fit ​​hole, the pressing member and the housing are engaged with the positioning hole through the protrusion to prevent rotation.

[0016] In some embodiments, the housing includes a first mounting plate and a second mounting plate disposed opposite to each other, the barrel assembly is disposed between the first mounting plate and the second mounting plate, both the first mounting plate and the second mounting plate are provided with the through hole, the through hole is collinear with the center line of the insertion hole, the first mounting plate is a front support plate, and the crimping member is connected to the second mounting plate.

[0018] The transport and fixing structure of the garment processing equipment provided in this application, on the one hand, restricts the rolling of the tub assembly relative to the box by setting transport bolts, with the fixing rods of the transport bolts passing through the through holes of the box body and the insertion holes of the tub assembly. On the other hand, by setting a crimping member sleeved on one end of the fixing rod, the crimping member, by setting a stop surface and having its projection along the first direction on the box body at least partially covering the through hole, restricts the movement of the fixing rod in the first direction. This restricts the axial movement of the fixing rod, thereby fixing it and reducing the possibility of the fixing rod coming out of the insertion hole and through hole due to vibration. Furthermore, the fixing rod can be installed and removed simply by inserting and withdrawing, improving assembly efficiency and alleviating the problem of difficult disassembly due to deformation of the fixing rod. Moreover, before use, the user can remove the crimping member, pull out the fixing rod, and then connect the crimping member to the box body, which helps prevent accidental contact and potential danger. In other words, the garment processing equipment provided in this application improves the efficiency of installing and removing transport bolts. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0027] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and technical features in the embodiments of this application can be combined with each other, and the detailed descriptions in the specific implementation should be understood as explanations of the purpose of this application and should not be regarded as undue limitations on this application.

[0028] In the description of the embodiments of this application, it should be noted that the terms "height direction," "top," "bottom," "first direction," "second direction," etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the appendix. Figure 1 Appendix Figure 4 and appendix Figure 6 The orientations or positional relationships shown are for the convenience of describing the embodiments of this application and for simplifying the description, and are not intended to indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation. They are constructed and operated in a specific orientation and therefore should not be construed as limiting the embodiments of this application. The application will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0029] Currently, to reduce the shaking of clothing handling equipment, especially washing machines, during transportation, transport bolts are generally used to fix the machine body and outer tub. However, transport bolts can only be fixed to the rear of the outer tub, which is ineffective. Existing technologies use long rods that pass through the front and rear panels of the machine body and the outer tub to restrict movement. When using long rods, the front end is often threaded and fixed to the front of the machine body. However, due to the length of the rod, deformation can easily occur in the middle, preventing rotation. The threaded connection between the front end of the rod and the front of the machine body can become impossible to unscrew, making it impossible to remove the rod from the machine. Existing technologies have changed the fixing end to the rear end, but this requires adding a fixing plate to the outside of the rear panel of the machine body after the rod is assembled and securing it with screws. Disassembly requires removing the fixing plate first before the transport rod can be removed. Both assembly and disassembly are cumbersome, and the mounting holes and fixing holes of the machine body are exposed after the transport rod is removed, affecting the appearance and allowing dust to enter the machine body.

[0030] The first aspect of this application provides a garment processing device; please refer to [link / reference]. Figures 1 to 4The garment handling equipment includes a tub assembly 1, a housing 2, and a transport bolt 3. The tub assembly 1 is provided with a plug-in portion 11 having a plug-in hole 111. The housing 2 is provided with a through hole 21, and the tub assembly 1 is disposed inside the housing 2. The transport bolt 3 includes a fixing member 31 and a crimping member 32. The fixing member 31 includes a fixing rod 311, which passes through the through hole 21 and the plug-in hole 111 along a first direction for fixing the tub assembly 1. The crimping member 32 includes a stop surface 321, which is located outside the end of the fixing rod 311 facing away from the first direction for limiting the movement of the fixing rod 311 facing away from the first direction. The projection of the crimping member 32 along the first direction on the housing 2 at least partially covers the through hole 21.

[0031] In the embodiments of this application, the laundry processing equipment refers to a container assembly 1 having a housing 2 structure and a drum assembly 1 for accommodating laundry that moves relative to the housing 2. For example, it can be a front-loading washing machine or a top-loading washing machine. Because the drum assembly 1 can move relative to the housing 2, bumps during transportation can cause the drum assembly 1 to shake, resulting in damage to the laundry processing equipment.

[0032] The specific structure of the garment processing equipment is not limited here; any structure that includes a drum assembly 1 and a box 2 is acceptable.

[0033] The specific structure of the box 2 is not limited here, as long as it can accommodate the barrel assembly 1 and the barrel assembly 1 can move relative to the box 2.

[0034] The insertion part 11 is a structure provided on the barrel assembly 1, having an insertion hole 111. The fixing rod 311 of the transport bolt 3 passes through the insertion hole 111 and is connected to the insertion part 11, restricting the movement of the insertion part 11, thereby restricting the movement of the barrel assembly 1 relative to the box 2, such as rotation relative to the box 2.

[0035] The specific structure of the plug-in part 11 is not limited here. For example, it can be a structure integrally formed with the main body of the barrel assembly 1, or it can be connected to the main body of the barrel assembly 1 through a connecting structure.

[0036] The location of the connector 11 is not limited here. Generally, in order not to affect the washing function of the tub assembly 1, the connector 11 is located on the outer wall of the tub assembly 1.

[0037] For example, the insertion portion 11 is integrally formed with the main body portion of the barrel assembly 1. The insertion portion 11 is formed by extending from the outer wall of the barrel assembly 1 away from the outer wall of the barrel assembly 1.

[0038] The shape and structure of the insertion hole 111 are not limited here, and are specifically designed according to the shape and structure of the fixing rod 311.

[0039] The number of insertion holes 111 is not limited here; for example, it can be one, two, or more. Generally, one insertion hole 111 is provided on each side of the outer wall of the barrel assembly 1 to improve the stability of the connection between the fixing rod 311 and the insertion part 11. Of course, the number of insertion holes 111 can be appropriately increased or decreased depending on the mass of the barrel assembly 1.

[0040] The through hole 21 is a structure opened on the housing 2 for fixing the rod 311. The shape and structure of the through hole 21 are not limited here, and are set according to the shape and structure of the fixing rod 311.

[0041] The location of the via 21 is not limited here, but is determined according to the location of the insertion hole 111. The projections of the via 21 and the insertion hole 111 overlap on at least one plane, and the overlapping area can cover the cross-section of the fixing rod 311. That is to say, the fixing rod 311 can pass through the via 21 and the insertion hole 111 along at least one path.

[0042] Generally speaking, in order to facilitate the smooth insertion of the fixing rod 311, the cross section of the through hole 21 is parallel to the cross section of the insertion hole 111, and the central axes of the two are collinear.

[0043] The number of through holes 21 is not limited here; for example, it can be one, two, or more. Generally, one through hole 21 is provided on each of the opposite sides of the housing 2 to improve the stability of the connection between the fixing rod 311 and the insertion part 11. In this way, the two sides of the housing 2 restrict the two ends of the fixing rod 311 radially, thereby restricting the movement of the insertion part 11 on the barrel assembly 1 that passes through the fixing rod 311.

[0044] The insertion direction of the fixing rod 311 is not limited here, and is specifically determined according to the structure of the barrel assembly 1 and the box 2. Generally, the barrel assembly 1 rotates along its central axis, and the fixing rod 311 needs to restrict the rotation of the barrel assembly 1. In some embodiments, the insertion direction of the fixing rod 311 is perpendicular to the central axis of the barrel assembly 1. In other embodiments, the insertion direction of the fixing rod 311 is parallel to the central axis of the barrel assembly 1. Of course, the insertion direction of the fixing rod 311 can also be inclined at a certain angle to the central axis of the barrel assembly 1. It can be understood that the setting of the insertion direction of the fixing rod 311 determines the setting of the positions of the insertion hole 111 and the through hole 21.

[0045] In some embodiments, a guide structure is provided on the insertion hole 111 and / or through hole 21 to facilitate the insertion of the fixing rod 311. For example, the projected area of ​​the insertion hole 111 and / or through hole 21 on a plane perpendicular to the axial direction of the fixing rod 311 decreases along the insertion direction of the fixing rod 311. For instance, the insertion hole 111 and / or through hole 21 can be a frustum-shaped structure, thus guiding the fixing rod 311 through the frustum-shaped inner wall of the insertion hole 111 and / or through hole 21.

[0046] Understandably, with the through hole 21 of the housing 2 restricting the radial movement of the fixing rod 311, the rotation of the barrel assembly 1 can be limited. However, vibrations during transportation may cause the fixing rod 311 to move axially, resulting in it coming loose from the through hole 21 and the insertion hole 111, thus causing the limiting effect of the fixing rod 311 on the barrel assembly 1 to fail. Therefore, it is necessary to restrict the fixing rod 311 axially.

[0047] The first direction here refers to, for example Figure 1 As shown, the through hole 21 and the insertion hole 111 are fitted onto the fixing rod 311, and the insertion direction of the fixing rod 311 is shown.

[0048] The specific structure of the crimping member 32 is not limited here. It can be connected to the housing 2 and can limit the fixing rod 311 at least in the axial direction.

[0049] The crimping member 32 can be integrally formed with the fixing member 31, or the fixing member 31 can be restricted by the connecting structure; this is not limited here.

[0050] The stop surface 321 refers to the surface structure on the pressing member 32 used to restrict the movement of the fixing rod 311 away from the first direction after it is inserted and engaged. On one hand, the stop surface 321 engages with other components, such as the housing 2; on the other hand, the stop surface 321 presses against the end of the fixing rod 311 facing away from the first direction, thereby restricting the movement of the fixing rod 311 away from the first direction. Alternatively, there may be a small gap between the stop surface 321 and the end of the fixing rod 311 facing away from the first direction, allowing the fixing rod 311 to move within a small range within the gap space. The specific structure of the stop surface 321 is not limited here.

[0051] For example, the stop surface 321 is a plane, and the stop surface 321 contacts the surface of the fixing rod 311, restricting the fixing rod 311 from moving away from the first direction.

[0052] In some embodiments, the shape of the stop surface 321 corresponds to the shape of the contact surface of the fixing rod 311, so that the fixing rod 311 and the stop surface 321 are nested together, which helps to increase the contact area between the stop surface 321 and the fixing rod 311.

[0053] The projection of the crimping member 32 onto the housing 2 along the first direction at least partially covers the through hole 21, that is, the crimping member 32 covers part of the end of the fixing rod 311, so that the crimping member 32 can restrict the axial movement of the fixing rod 311.

[0054] Of course, in addition to limiting the axial direction of the fixed rod 311, the crimping member 32 can also limit the radial direction of the fixed rod 311, thus increasing the constraint on the fixed rod 311. Furthermore, the crimping member 32 can also limit the rotational freedom of the fixed rod 311 along the central axis, thereby fully constraining the fixed rod 311.

[0055] The transport and fixing structure of the garment processing equipment provided in this application, on the one hand, restricts the rolling of the tub assembly 1 relative to the box 2 by setting transport bolts 3, with the fixing rod 311 of the transport bolts 3 passing through the through hole 21 of the box 2 and the insertion hole 111 of the tub assembly 1. On the other hand, by setting a pressing member 32 sleeved on one end of the fixing rod 311, the pressing member 32 restricts the movement of the fixing rod 311 in the first direction by setting a stop surface 321 and the projection of the pressing member 32 on the box 2 along the first direction at least partially covering the through hole 21. In this way, the axial movement of the fixing rod 311 can be restricted, thereby fixing the fixing rod 311 and reducing the possibility of the fixing rod 311 coming out of the insertion hole 111 and the through hole 21 due to vibration. In addition, the installation and removal of the fixing rod 311 can be realized by insertion and removal, improving assembly efficiency and improving the problem of difficult disassembly caused by deformation of the fixing rod 311. Furthermore, by removing the crimping piece 32 and pulling out the fixing rod 311 before use, and then connecting the crimping piece 32 to the housing 2, the user can prevent accidental contact and potential danger. In other words, the clothing handling equipment provided in this application improves the efficiency of disassembling and assembling the transport bolt 3.

[0056] In some embodiments, please refer to Figures 1 to 6 The projection of the crimping member 32 along the first direction on the housing 2 completely covers the through hole 21; both the fixing rod 311 and the crimping member 32 can be detachably connected to the housing 2.

[0057] The projection of the crimping member 32 along the first direction onto the housing 2 completely covers the through hole 21. Thus, there is a larger area on the crimping member 32 where the stop surface 321 can be set, which is beneficial for the setting of the stop surface 321 and improves the limiting effect of the stop surface 321 on the fixing rod 311.

[0058] At the same time, the crimping member 32 completely covers the through hole 21. In other words, the fixing rod 311 that is inserted through the through hole 21 can also be completely covered by the crimping member 32. While protecting the fixing rod 311, it can also prevent dust from entering the clothing processing equipment from the exposed part of the through hole 21.

[0059] Both the fixing rod 311 and the crimping member 32 are detachably connected to the housing 2. In some embodiments, this specifically means that the fixing rod 311 is inserted into the through hole 21 of the housing 2 and connected to the housing 2 only through the crimping member 32, without the need for additional connecting structures. The crimping member 32 is detachable, meaning that both the fixing rod 311 and the crimping member 32 are detachably connected to the housing 2. Simply removing the crimping member 32 allows the fixing rod 311 to be pulled out from the through hole 21 of the housing 2. Of course, additional detachable connecting structures can also be provided to connect the fixing rod 311 to the housing 2 or the crimping member 32, which is not limited here.

[0060] By detachably connecting the fixing rod 311 and the crimping piece 32 to the housing 2, the garment processing equipment can be easily disassembled and assembled before and after transportation. After the garment processing equipment is installed, the fixing rod 311 can be pulled out separately, and the crimping piece 32 can be connected to the housing 2 separately. This conceals the exposed through-hole 21 on the housing 2, improving the aesthetics and preventing dust from entering the interior of the garment processing equipment through the through-hole 21.

[0061] In some embodiments, please refer to Figures 1 to 6 The crimping member 32 has a body portion 322 that protrudes and extends away from the first direction. The body portion 322 is provided with a receiving cavity 3221. The end of the fixing rod 311 facing away from the first direction is at least partially received in the receiving cavity 3221. The surface of the body portion 322 facing the first direction forms a stop surface 321.

[0062] The structure of the receiving cavity 3221 is determined based on the end of the fixing rod 311 facing away from the first direction, and is not limited here.

[0063] In some embodiments, the receiving cavity 3221 and the end of the fixing rod 311 facing away from the first direction can be snapped together, so that the fixing rod 311 and the crimping member 32 are connected as a component, which reduces the number of scattered parts of the transport bolt 3, facilitates parts management, and also enables the pre-installation of the transport bolt 3, reducing the workload of on-site installation.

[0064] For example, the receiving cavity 3221 is cylindrical and is sleeved on the end of the fixing rod 311 facing away from the first direction. The stop surface 321 forms part of the wall of the receiving cavity 3221. The receiving cavity 3221 abuts against the end of the fixing rod 311, restricting the movement of the fixing rod 311 in the axial direction, preventing the fixing rod 311 from moving in the axial direction, and preventing the fixing rod 311 from coming out of the insertion hole 111 and the through hole 21.

[0065] By providing a receiving cavity 3221 in the main body 322 to receive the end of the fixing rod 311 facing away from the first direction, the fixing rod 311 is axially limited, preventing the fixing rod 311 from moving axially and preventing the fixing rod 311 from coming out of the insertion hole 111 and the through hole 21, thereby improving the safety of transportation.

[0066] In some embodiments, please refer to Figures 1 to 6 The crimping member 32 is provided with a first snap-fit ​​part 323, and the housing 2 is provided with a first snap-fit ​​hole 22. The first snap-fit ​​part 323 and the first snap-fit ​​hole 22 are snap-fitted together to fix the crimping member 32 to the housing 2.

[0067] The first snap-fit ​​part 323 is a structure on the crimping member 32 used to connect the crimping member 32 to the housing 2. The specific structure is not limited here.

[0068] It should be noted that the first snap-fit ​​part 323 can be provided on the opening of the receiving cavity 3221, or it can be not provided on the opening of the receiving cavity 3221. The specific position is not limited here.

[0069] For example, the first snap-fit ​​part 323 is disposed on the opening of the receiving cavity 3221, the crimping member 32 is connected to the housing 2 through the first snap-fit ​​part 323, and the end of the fixing rod 311 is accommodated in the receiving cavity 3221 to achieve the fixing of the crimping member 32 and the limiting of the fixing rod 311.

[0070] The first snap-fit ​​hole 22 is a structure on the housing 2 that engages with the first snap-fit ​​part 323. The specific structure and position of the first snap-fit ​​hole 22 are not limited here, but are determined according to the structure of the first snap-fit ​​part 323.

[0071] By setting a first snap-fit ​​part 323 on the crimping member 32 and a corresponding first snap-fit ​​hole 22 on the housing 2, the first snap-fit ​​part 323 and the first snap-fit ​​hole 22 snap-fit ​​together, thus realizing the limiting function of the crimping member 32. The snap-fit ​​type of engagement also facilitates disassembly.

[0072] In some embodiments, please refer to Figures 1 to 6 The first snap-fit ​​portion 323 includes a locking claw 3231, which has an insertion portion 32311 extending toward a first direction and a locking member 32312 extending from one end of the insertion portion 32311 toward a second direction, the second direction being perpendicular to the first direction; the insertion portion 32311 is adapted to be inserted into the first snap-fit ​​hole 22, and the first snap-fit ​​portion 323 is adapted to be snapped and fixed with the edge of the first snap-fit ​​hole 22 after the crimping member 32 is rotated by a preset angle.

[0073] The insertion part 32311 extends toward the first direction. By providing the insertion part 32311, it is convenient for the structure of the first snap-fit ​​part 323 to cooperate with the first snap-fit ​​hole 22. The specific structure is not limited here.

[0074] The locking member 32312 is a structure provided at one end of the insertion part 32311. The locking member 32312 is used to cooperate with other structures. The locking member 32312 restricts the movement of the first latching part 323 at least in the preset insertion direction of the locking claw 3231 by changing the state of itself or other structures that cooperate with the locking member 32312.

[0075] It should be noted that the setting of the locking element 32312 does not affect the insertion of the locking claw 3231 along the preset insertion direction.

[0076] The insertion part 32311 is adapted to be inserted into the first snap-fit ​​hole 22. The first snap-fit ​​part 323 being engaged and fixed with the edge of the first snap-fit ​​hole 22 after the crimping member 32 rotates at a preset angle means that when the insertion part 32311 is inserted into the first snap-fit ​​hole 22, the first snap-fit ​​part 323 and the first snap-fit ​​hole 22 can still move along the preset insertion direction, and the locking member 32312 on the locking claw 3231 does not structurally cooperate with the first snap-fit ​​hole 22. When the crimping member 32 rotates to the preset angle, the locking member 32312 abuts against the edge of the first snap-fit ​​hole 22, and the edge of the first snap-fit ​​hole 22 prevents the locking member 32312 from leaving from the preset insertion direction, thus fixing the crimping member 32.

[0077] In some embodiments, the locking member 32312 has a certain degree of elasticity. The locking member 32312 enters the housing 2 through the first snap-fit ​​hole 22. The pressing member 32 rotates, causing the inner wall of the housing 2 to push the locking member 32312 to deform in a direction opposite to the insertion direction, generating an elastic force. After the pressing member 32 has rotated, the locking member 32312 abuts against the inner wall of the housing 2 under the action of the elastic force, thereby fixing the locking member 32312.

[0078] In some embodiments, after the garment processing equipment is installed, the crimping member 32 can be individually snapped onto the housing 2 to cover the through hole 21 on the housing 2 and improve the dustproof and waterproof effect of the housing 2.

[0079] By providing a locking claw 3231 on the first snap-fit ​​portion 323, the locking claw 3231 extends into the first snap-fit ​​hole 22 through the insertion portion 32311. A locking member 32312 is provided at one end of the insertion portion 11. After rotating by a preset angle, the locking member 32312 can restrict the movement of the first snap-fit ​​portion 323 at least in the preset insertion direction of the locking claw 3231, thus achieving a snap-fit ​​engagement between the first snap-fit ​​portion 323 and the second snap-fit ​​portion, thereby achieving a fixed connection of the crimping member 32. Simultaneously, the snap-fit ​​engagement also facilitates the installation and removal of the transport bolt 3.

[0080] In some embodiments, please refer to Figures 1 to 6The fixing member 31 is provided with a limiting part 312, which is sleeved on the fixing rod 311 and connected to the fixing rod 311. The limiting part 312 is at least partially accommodated in the receiving cavity 3221. The size of the limiting part 312 is not less than the opening size of the through hole 21, and the limiting part 312 is located on the outside of the through hole 21 facing away from the first direction to prevent the fixing rod 311 from moving toward the first direction.

[0081] The limiting part 312 is made of a material with certain elasticity, wear resistance, and ease of molding, such as rubber, etc., and the specific material is not limited here. It should be noted that the limiting part 312 should not undergo large deformation when subjected to force. If the deformation range is too large, the restriction on the fixing rod 311 will be insufficient, and the movement range of the fixing rod 311 will be too large, affecting the fixing effect of the transport bolt 3, which is not allowed.

[0082] The limiting part 312 is sleeved on the fixing rod 311. By setting a structure on the limiting part 312 and connecting it with the fixing rod 311, the fixing rod 311 is limited. The specific structure is not limited here.

[0083] For example, the limiting part 312 is a cylindrical structure with a central through hole. The limiting part 312 is sleeved on the fixing rod 311 and is interference-fitted with the hole shaft of the fixing rod 311 to realize the connection between the limiting part 312 and the fixing rod 311.

[0084] Here, "the limiting part 312 is at least partially located within the receiving cavity 3221" means that, when projected onto an axial plane perpendicular to the fixing rod 311, the projection of the receiving cavity 3221 covers the projection of the limiting part 312. Thus, the limiting part 312 is at least partially located within the receiving cavity 3221, and the receiving cavity 3221 can limit the limiting part 312 along the axial direction of the fixing rod 311.

[0085] The size of the limiting part 312 is not smaller than the opening size of the through hole 21. The limiting part 312 is located on the outside of the through hole 21 facing away from the first direction. In this way, the limiting part 312 cannot pass through the through hole 21 in the first direction. At this time, the fixing rod 311 connected to the limiting part 312 also cannot pass through the through hole 21 completely in the first direction, thereby restricting the movement of the fixing rod 311 in the first direction.

[0086] By providing a limiting part 312, on the one hand, the limiting part 312 is at least partially located within the receiving cavity 3221. The limiting part 312 cooperates with the pressing member 32 to limit the fixing rod 311 both along the first direction and away from the first direction. On the other hand, the limiting part 312 is made of an elastic material to achieve a flexible connection of the transport bolt 3. The limiting part 312 can buffer the interaction force generated by the vibration of each part during transportation, thereby reducing the possibility of deformation of the fixing rod 311 during transportation.

[0087] In some embodiments, please refer to Figures 1 to 5 The fixing member 31 includes a sealing part 313, which is connected to the limiting part 312. The sealing part 313 extends from the limiting part 312 toward the first direction. The size of the sealing part 313 is not greater than the opening size of the through hole 21. The sealing part 313 is suitable for being inserted into the through hole 21 and sealing the through hole 21.

[0088] The sealing part 313 refers to a structure that connects to the limiting part 312 along the first direction, is sleeved on the fixing rod 311, and isolates the fixing rod 311 from the through hole 21. The size of the sealing part 313 is no larger than the opening size of the through hole 21, so that the sealing part 313 can extend into the through hole 21, isolating the fixing rod 311 from the through hole 21, making the contact between the fixing rod 311 and the through hole 21 soft, thus buffering the interaction force between the fixing rod 311 and the through hole 21 during transportation. At the same time, since the through hole 21 is a hole opened in the box 2, and the wall thickness of the box 2 is limited, direct contact between the through hole 21 and the fixing rod 311 would result in a small contact area, which could easily cause deformation of the through hole 21 under vibration and impact, affecting the limiting effect of the fixing rod 311. By sleeved on the fixing rod 311, the limiting part 312 is made to contact the sealing part 313 with the through hole 21, increasing the contact area, improving the stability of the limiting effect of the through hole 21, and ensuring the limiting effect of the through hole 21. In addition, the sealing part 313 can also block the through hole 21 to prevent external dust or liquid from entering the garment processing equipment.

[0089] For example, the sealing part 313 is a cylindrical structure, the size of the sealing part 313 is not greater than the opening size of the through hole 21, the sealing part 313 extends into the through hole 21, and the outer wall of the sealing part 313 fits with the through hole 21.

[0090] By setting the limiting part 312 as a sealing part 313 and a limiting part 312, the sealing part 313 is inserted into the through hole 21 to buffer the radial vibration impact of the fixing rod 311 during transportation, and the limiting part 312 buffers the axial impact of the fixing rod 311, which helps to improve the fixing effect of the transport bolt 3 and reduce the possibility of deformation of the fixing rod 311 during transportation.

[0091] In some embodiments, please refer to Figures 1 to 5 The fixing rod 311 has an abutment portion 3111 at its end facing away from the first direction. The abutment portion 3111 is suitable to be stopped by the stop surface 321. The fixing member 31 also includes a washer 314 sleeved on the fixing rod 311. The washer 314 is sandwiched between the limiting portion 312 and the abutment portion 3111. The rigidity of the washer 314 is greater than that of the limiting portion 312.

[0092] The abutment portion 3111 is a structure that restricts the axial movement of the fixing rod 311. The abutment portion 3111 restricts the movement of the fixing rod 311 by abutting against other structures other than the fixing rod 311. The specific structure of the abutment portion 3111 is not limited here.

[0093] In this embodiment, the abutting part 3111 abuts against the stopped surface 321 on the side away from the first direction, and abuts against the washer 314 on the side along the first direction. The washer 314 abuts against the limiting part 312, and the limiting part 312 abuts against the housing 2. Thus, the fixing rod 311 is restricted in the first direction and away from the first direction (i.e., axial direction).

[0094] Washer 314 is existing technology, and its structure will not be described in detail here. It should be noted that the specific structure of washer 314 is determined based on the structure of fixing rod 311 and abutment part 3111. Generally speaking, the area of ​​washer 314 is larger than the projected area of ​​abutment part 3111 on the contact surface of limiting part 312.

[0095] Here, the rigidity of the washer 314 is greater than that of the limiting part 312, which is beneficial to maintain the basic shape when the washer 314 is compressed. The contact between the washer 314 and the limiting part 312 will not become uneven due to the deformation of the washer 314 itself, so that the stress at a certain point on the contact surface is too large, causing deformation of the limiting part 312 or the fixing rod 311.

[0096] By providing a washer 314 between the limiting part 312 and the abutting part 3111, on the one hand, the axial position of the fixing rod 311 can be adjusted by changing the thickness of the washer 314, thereby adjusting the mating position of the fixing rod 311 with the insertion hole 111 and the through hole 21. On the other hand, the provision of the washer 314 also increases the contact area between the limiting part 312 and the abutting part 3111, which is beneficial for the cushioning of the limiting part 312.

[0097] For example, the fixing member 31 includes a limiting part 312, which is cylindrical, and a fixing rod 311 is sleeved on the limiting part 312. The end of the fixing rod 311 extending out of the housing 2 and facing away from the first direction forms an abutment part 3111. The fixing rod 311 is a cylindrical structure coaxial with the abutment part 3111, and the bottom area of ​​the abutment part 3111 is equal to the cross-sectional area of ​​the fixing rod 311. At the end of the fixing rod 311 facing away from the first direction, the fixing rod 311 is stopped by a stop surface 321. This achieves axial limiting of the fixing rod 311.

[0098] By providing an abutment portion 3111, which is limited by a stop surface 321 and a limiting portion 312, the axial movement of the fixed rod 311 is further restricted, resulting in a simple structure. The limiting portion 312 also buffers the impact on the fixed rod 311 during transportation. Washers 314 are provided between the contact surfaces, which not only facilitates the adjustment of the axial position of the fixed rod 311 but also increases the force-bearing area and reduces the deformation of the force-bearing surface.

[0099] In some embodiments, please refer to Figures 1 to 6 The main body 322 has a flange 3222 at one end facing the housing 2. The first snap-fit ​​part 323 is provided on the flange 3222. The flange 3222 has a protrusion 32221. The housing 2 has a positioning hole 23. When the first snap-fit ​​part 323 is engaged with the first snap-fit ​​hole 22, the pressing part 32 and the housing 2 are engaged with the positioning hole 23 through the protrusion 32221 to prevent rotation.

[0100] The specific dimensions of the flange 3222 are not limited here, but are determined based on the engagement of the first snap-fit ​​part 323 and the first snap-fit ​​hole 22. It can be understood that the larger the size of the flange 3222, the larger the size of the first snap-fit ​​part 323 can be, and the more stable the engagement between the first snap-fit ​​part 323 and the first snap-fit ​​hole 22 will be.

[0101] The specific structure of the protrusion 32221 is not limited here. For example, it can be set as a hemispherical structure, which makes it easier to cooperate with the positioning hole 23.

[0102] The structure of the positioning hole 23 is determined based on the structure of the protrusion 32221, and is not limited here.

[0103] The position of the positioning hole 23 is set according to the position of the protrusion 32221 when the first snap-fit ​​part 323 is engaged with the first snap-fit ​​hole 22.

[0104] In some embodiments, a hemispherical protrusion 32221 is provided on the flange 3222, and a hemispherical positioning hole 23 corresponding to the protrusion 32221 is provided on the housing 2. When the pressing member 32 rotates, it drives the protrusion 32221 to approach the positioning hole 23. When the first snap-fit ​​part 323 is engaged with the first snap-fit ​​hole 22, the protrusion 32221 engages with the positioning hole 23 and enters the positioning hole 23. When the pressing member 32 needs to be disassembled, the pressing member 32 rotates in the opposite direction, driving the protrusion 32221 to disengage from the positioning hole 23.

[0105] By providing a protrusion 32221 on the first latching part 323 and a positioning hole 23 corresponding to the protrusion 32221 on the upper housing 2, the rotational movement of the pressing member 32 around the central axis of the fixing rod 311 is restricted after the first latching part 323 and the first latching hole 22 are engaged. This reduces the likelihood of the first latching part 323 and the first latching hole 22 disengaging under vibration, thus preventing the pressing member 32 from failing to stay in place. The structure is simple and effective, and allows for quick assembly and disassembly.

[0106] In some embodiments, please refer to Figures 1 to 4 The housing 2 includes a first mounting plate 24 and a second mounting plate 25 arranged opposite to each other. The barrel assembly 1 is disposed between the first mounting plate 24 and the second mounting plate 25. Both the first mounting plate 24 and the second mounting plate 25 are provided with through holes 21. The center line of the through holes 21 is collinear with the center line of the insertion hole 111. The first mounting plate 24 is a front support plate. The pressing member 32 is connected to the second mounting plate 25.

[0107] In some embodiments, the clothing handling device is a drum washing machine, and the drum washing machine's casing 2 is rectangular. The first mounting plate 24 is the front support plate of the drum washing machine, and the second mounting plate 25 is the rear support plate. Generally, to ensure the aesthetics of the front of the drum washing machine, the pressing part 32 is connected to the rear support plate, and the through hole 21 on the front support plate is not through or is covered by a decorative part on the front plate. Of course, the second mounting plate can also be other parts of the drum washing machine, and is not limited here.

[0108] Of course, in some embodiments, the clothing processing device can also be a top-loading washing machine, and its connection method is similar to that of a front-loading washing machine, which will not be described in detail here.

[0109] By setting through holes 21 on two mounting plates opposite each other on the housing 2, the crimping part 32 is connected to the installation on the second mounting plate 25, which is not easily visible and does not affect the aesthetics. This method is suitable for most clothing processing equipment, facilitates the installation of transport bolts 3, and has a simple and effective structure.

[0110] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit the application. Various modifications and variations can be made to this application by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this application are included within the scope of protection of this application.
