Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of clothing processing technology, and more particularly to a clothing processing device. Background Technology

[0002] Clothing handling appliances refer to a series of devices used in homes and laundries to wash, dry, and remove wrinkles from clothes. These devices include washing machines, dryers, washer / dryer combos, garment care machines, steam irons, etc. The main function of a washing machine is to wash, rinse, and spin-dry clothes. It removes stains by placing clothes in a rotating drum and using water and detergent. Washing machines typically include an inlet hose and an outlet hose, where the inlet hose introduces water and the outlet hose discharges wastewater. Because traditional inlet hoses are relatively large, they are usually located above the drum assembly.

[0003] In smaller washing machine products, such as countertop washing machines, this will result in a larger overall space occupied, which is not conducive to the effective use of space. Utility Model Content

[0004] This application provides a clothing processing device, which aims to improve the problem of the large space occupied by the overall clothing processing device.

[0005] This application provides a garment processing device, including:

[0008] The water treatment circuit is connected to the inlet pipe and the first inlet; and

[0009] The mixing water path is connected to the water inlet pipe and the second water inlet.

[0010] In some embodiments, the water treatment circuit includes:

[0011] The water treatment module is connected to the water inlet pipe and the first water inlet via a pipeline;

[0019] In some embodiments, the water inlet assembly includes:

[0020] Quick-connect water inlet connector; and

[0021] The inlet valve is connected to the inlet quick-connect fitting and the inlet end of the tee pipe via a pipeline, and is located downstream of the inlet quick-connect fitting along the direction of liquid flow.

[0022] In some embodiments, the garment handling device further includes a base for supporting the tubular assembly, and the mixing water path includes:

[0023] A mixing chamber, disposed on the base, has a mixing cavity communicating with the second water outlet and a liquid outlet communicating with the mixing cavity, the liquid outlet also communicating with the second water inlet;

[0024] A self-dispensing pump, mounted on the base and connected to the mixing chamber, has a drain port and a suction port. The drain port communicates with the mixing chamber. The self-dispensing pump is used to pump the laundry detergent into the mixing chamber through the drain port.

[0025] A liquid storage box is disposed on the base, connected to the self-injection pump, and communicates with the liquid extraction port. The liquid storage box is used to store the clothing treatment agent.

[0026] In some embodiments, the front side of the cylinder assembly has a clothing loading / unloading port, and the liquid storage box is positioned closer to the clothing loading / unloading port than the self-dispensing pump.

[0027] In some embodiments, the cylinder assembly includes:

[0029] A door seal is installed on the front side of the cylinder; and

[0030] A spray head is installed on the door seal, and the water outlet of the spray head is connected to the clothing processing chamber.

[0031] In some embodiments, the first water inlet and the second water inlet are located on either side of the vertical plane containing the central axis of the cylinder assembly.

[0032] In some embodiments, the cylindrical assembly can be divided into an upper part and a lower part along the vertical direction, with the centroid of the cylindrical assembly as the boundary;

This layout design effectively reduces the space occupied by the whole machine, making the internal structure of the clothes handling device more compact. It is especially suitable for miniaturized desktop washing machine products, making it convenient for users to place and use in limited spaces.

[0035] It features a first and a second water inlet, designed to work in conjunction with the water treatment and mixing circuits respectively. This allows for simultaneous water supply to the drum assembly from both inlets, accelerating the water filling process for clothes and improving washing efficiency. Because the water treatment and mixing circuits are separate, the water treatment circuit can pre-treat the water entering the drum assembly, performing processes such as filtration, softening, and sterilization. This enhances washing performance and protects clothes. Furthermore, this design avoids potential interference between the mixing circuit and the water treatment circuit. Attached Figure Description

[0044] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of this application.

[0045] This application relates to a clothing handling device. Currently, there are many types of clothing handling devices. Functionally, they typically include washing machines, dryers, and spin dryers. Among them, washing machines are classified into top-loading washing machines and front-loading washing machines according to their drive method. Front-loading washing machines are widely popular in the market because they are water-saving, energy-efficient, and gentle on clothes. Furthermore, since washing machines are usually designed for washing large amounts of laundry for families, they are relatively large and not suitable for single people or users who need to wash small batches of clothes. In this case, a more flexible and space-saving option is a countertop front-loading washing machine.

[0046] A countertop front-loading washing machine is a smaller version of a front-loading washing machine. Its compact size allows it to be placed on a table or countertop, making it ideal for studio apartments, dormitories, or small homes. While small in size, it retains the advantages of a front-loading washing machine, such as gentle washing and water conservation. Its smaller size also makes it more convenient to use and more energy-efficient.

[0047] The following description uses a desktop drum washing machine as an example to illustrate this embodiment; other clothing processing devices can be considered similarly.

[0048] Please see Figure 1This embodiment provides a garment processing device 100, including a base 10, a drum assembly 20, a drain pipe, and a water inlet pipe 30. The base 10 may include a metal frame and a chassis disposed at the bottom of the metal frame. It should be noted that the chassis can be the bottom structure of the garment processing device 100 or a separate structure for mounting functional components. The metal frame has a receiving cavity, and the drum assembly 20 is installed in the receiving cavity and supported on the chassis by multiple dampers. That is, the drum assembly 20 is mounted on the base 10, achieving stable mounting of the drum assembly 20 on the base 10. The drum assembly 20 performs the core functions of the garment processing device 100, including but not limited to washing, rinsing, dehydration, and drying. The drum assembly 20 generates wastewater during the washing process. Arranging the drain pipe below the drum assembly 20 allows for natural drainage by gravity. This method is widely used in garment processing devices 100 and is a simple and effective drainage method.

[0049] The water inlet pipe 30 is used to connect to an external water source and provide water for the washing and other operations of the clothes handling device 100. The water inlet pipe 30 can be installed on the base 10 and located below the drum assembly 20, so that the water inlet pipe 30 and the drain pipe share the space below the drum assembly 20, which can make more efficient use of space, reduce the overall area occupied by the clothes handling device 100, and make the internal structure of the clothes handling device 100 more compact, especially suitable for tabletop washing machines with limited internal space.

[0050] Furthermore, the tubular assembly 20 has a first water inlet 20a and a second water inlet 20b. The garment processing device 100 also includes a water treatment channel 40 and a mixing channel 50. The water treatment channel 40 is used to treat the water quality in the water treatment channel 40. The water treatment channel 40 is connected to the water inlet pipe 30 and the first water inlet 20a. The first water inlet 20a can dispense the treated water in the water treatment channel 40 into the tubular assembly 20. The mixing channel 50 is used to mix the garment processing agent and water. The mixing channel 50 is connected to the water inlet pipe 30 and the second water inlet 20b. A portion of the mixing channel 50 can be arranged on the base 10 to provide stable support and make full use of the space for arranging the drain pipe in the garment processing device 100.

[0051] This embodiment features two independent water circuit systems, allowing for simultaneous water treatment operations and significantly improving washing cycle efficiency. Furthermore, the inclusion of a first inlet 20a and a second inlet 20b on the drum assembly 20 enables faster water filling. During washing, the parallel water intake from the first and second inlets 20a and 20b shortens the time required to fill the water tank, thereby enhancing the washing efficiency of the garment processing device 100. Moreover, when the water treatment circuit 40 or the mixing circuit 50 malfunctions, since they are independent modules, each circuit can be replaced individually without requiring overall repair.

[0052] Specifically, the first water inlet 20a and the second water inlet 20b are located on both sides of the vertical plane where the central axis of the drum assembly 20 is located. Since the first water inlet 20a and the second water inlet 20b are distributed on both sides, the unbalanced vibration caused by the impact of water flow on one side can be reduced. The double-sided water inlet can improve the stability of the drum assembly 20 during operation, and also help to distribute the water pressure evenly in the drum assembly 20, accelerate the wetting speed of the clothes to be treated inside the drum assembly 20, thereby improving the uniformity of washing.

[0053] Furthermore, the drum assembly 20 is arranged from back to front within a metal frame. In some configurations, the drum assembly 20 is tilted upwards from back to front, causing the clothes loading / unloading port 21b on the front side of the drum assembly 20 to be tilted upwards. This is more convenient for users to load and unload clothes through the clothes loading / unloading port 21b when used in countertop washing machines. Along the vertical direction of the clothes handling device 100, the drum assembly 20 can be divided into an upper and lower part, with its center of mass as the boundary. The first water inlet 20a and the second water inlet 20b are located in the upper part. Understandably, if the first water inlet 20a and the second water inlet 20b were located in the lower part of the drum assembly 20, water might flow back through the water treatment channel 40 and the mixing channel 50 instead of smoothly entering the drum assembly 20. The water treatment channel 40 and the mixing channel 50 can guide water to the upper part of the drum assembly 20, and then use gravity to allow the water to flow directly into the drum assembly 20.

[0054] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, the water treatment circuit 40 includes a water treatment module 41. The water treatment module 41 is connected to the inlet pipe 30 and the first inlet 20a through a pipe. That is, the pipe is connected between the inlet pipe 30 and the water treatment module 41, so that the water flowing through the water treatment module 41 is treated by the water treatment module 41 before flowing into the drum assembly 20 through the first inlet 20a, thereby improving the water quality in the drum assembly 20. The water is purified before entering the drum assembly 20 by the water treatment module 41, which can reduce the corrosion and deposition of minerals and impurities in the water on the internal parts of the washing machine and extend the service life of the equipment.

[0055] The water treatment module 41 includes at least one of the following: a color care and sterilization module, a blue oxygen module, and an anion sterilization module. The color care and sterilization (CCR) module contains polymer materials and is primarily used to protect the color of clothing while also having a sterilization function. It may include multiple functions such as filtration, adsorption, and sterilization, aiming to remove impurities and bacteria from the water to prevent clothing from fading or being damaged by bacteria during washing. The blue oxygen module is commonly used in water treatment to improve water quality. It may include a blue oxygen generator and other related equipment to produce blue oxygen (a strong oxidant) to oxidize and decompose organic matter and pollutants in the water. Anion sterilization modules, such as EDI (Electrodeionization) modules, are mainly used to remove cations and anions from the water to improve water purity. EDI modules selectively remove ions from the water through ion exchange and electric field forces, thereby achieving deep purification and desalination of the water. By separating the mixing water path 50 from the water treatment water path 40, the water treatment module 41 can focus on purifying and preparing treated water, while the mixing water path 50 can focus on mixing water and detergent in a specific ratio, thereby improving the efficiency and effectiveness of the entire system. The separate water treatment water path 40 ensures that the treated water is not contaminated by mixing with other water paths, thus guaranteeing the quality of the final water used. Furthermore, the mixing water path 50 may involve various chemicals (such as detergents and fabric softeners); separating it from the water treatment water path 40 reduces the potential impact of these chemicals on the water treatment module 41 and avoids cross-contamination.

[0056] When the water treatment module 41 is configured as a color-protecting and sterilizing module, it is connected to the inlet water pipe 30 and the first inlet 20a via a pipeline. Since the color-protecting and sterilizing module cannot be submerged in water for extended periods, as this would affect its lifespan, it is positioned above the first inlet 20a. After the water intake is complete, the water from the color-protecting and sterilizing module can enter the cylinder assembly 20 without remaining in the module and thus extending its lifespan. Water containing laundry detergent must not enter the color-protecting and sterilizing module to prevent contamination of its materials. Therefore, the color-protecting and sterilizing module should not be placed in the mixing water circuit 50. This measure protects the module's purity and effectiveness, ensuring the stability of its sterilization and color-protecting effects. By separating the color-protecting and sterilizing module from the mixing water circuit 50, contact between the laundry detergent and the color-protecting and sterilizing module is avoided, ensuring that the water flowing into the drum assembly 20 remains of high quality and is not affected by potential contamination from the laundry detergent. This reduces the potential damage of chemicals to the module materials, maintains the purity of the water, provides a safer washing environment for clothes, and enhances the safety and reliability of the laundry treatment device 100.

[0057] Furthermore, the color-protecting and sterilizing module can be positioned higher than the tube assembly 20. If the color-protecting and sterilizing module is located below the tube assembly 20, water retention will occur, leading to bacterial growth and secondary contamination. Positioning the color-protecting and sterilizing module at a higher level helps prevent water retention within the module, further keeping the inside of the module dry and reducing the risk of bacterial growth. Specifically, the color-protecting and sterilizing module is connected and fixed to a metal frame. The strength and stability of the metal frame provide robust support for the module, enhancing the structural stability of the entire garment treatment device 100.

[0058] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the water inlet pipe 30 includes an inlet assembly 31 and a tee pipe 32. The inlet assembly 31 is used to connect to an external water source. The tee pipe 32 has an inlet end 32a, a first outlet end 32b, and a second outlet end 32c. It can connect three pipes, allowing fluid to flow or split in different directions. The tee pipe 32 can be made of metal materials such as cast iron, cast steel, cast copper, cast aluminum, stainless steel, alloy steel, etc., or non-metallic materials such as polyvinyl chloride (PVC), unplasticized polyvinyl chloride (UPVC), and polypropylene random copolymer (PPR), etc. This application does not impose any limitations on this.

[0059] Specifically, the water inlet 32a is connected to the water inlet assembly 31, the first water outlet 32b is connected to the color protection and sterilization module, and the second water outlet 32c is connected to the mixing water path 50. The T-connector 32 allows water flow to be distributed to two different paths, namely the color protection and sterilization module and the mixing water path 50, providing flexibility in water flow distribution. This design can selectively deliver water to different modules according to washing needs, improving the adaptability and efficiency of the garment handling device 100. Furthermore, the T-connector 32 facilitates maintenance and repair. If a section of the pipe malfunctions or requires repair, the other pipes can be disconnected from the faulty pipe through the T-connector 32 for individual repair or replacement.

[0060] Please continue reading. Figure 3 and Figure 4 Specifically, the water inlet assembly 31 includes a quick-connect water inlet connector 311 and a water inlet valve 312, both mounted on the base 10. The quick-connect water inlet connector 311 is located at the rear of the garment handling device 100 and is used to connect to an external water source, allowing for quick and easy connection and disconnection, thus improving the ease of use of the garment handling device 100. The water inlet valve 312, as a control element, can control the inflow and magnitude of the water flow and prevent backflow, protecting the garment handling device 100 from reverse water pressure impact and extending its service life. The water inlet valve 312 is connected to the quick-connect water inlet connector 311 and the water inlet end 32a of the three-way pipe 32 via a pipeline. Located downstream of the quick-connect water inlet connector 311 along the direction of liquid flow, the water inlet valve 312 effectively prevents water from flowing back into the external water source system, protecting the water source from contamination.

[0061] In some embodiments, since the three-way pipe 32 also has the function of turning the water flow, the structure on the mixing water path 50 can be arranged on the base 10 with limited space as needed. Specifically, the mixing water path 50 includes a mixing chamber 51, a self-starting pump 52 and a liquid storage box 53, all of which are arranged on the base 10, making the layout on the base 10 more compact. The mixing chamber 51 and the three-way pipe 32 are arranged adjacent to each other in the left and right direction of the clothes treatment device 100. The mixing chamber 51 has a mixing cavity that communicates with the second water outlet 32c and a liquid outlet 51a that communicates with the mixing cavity. The liquid outlet 51a is located above the mixing chamber 51 and is also connected to the second water inlet 20b. The self-starting pump 52 is connected to the mixing chamber 51 and has a drain outlet and a suction outlet 52a. The drain outlet communicates with the mixing cavity. The storage box 53 is connected to the self-starting pump 52 and communicates with the suction outlet 52a. The storage box 53 is used to store clothes treatment agent, and the self-starting pump 52 is used to pump the clothes treatment agent in the storage box 53 into the mixing cavity through the drain outlet. That is, the self-starting pump 52 can automatically pump the clothes treatment agent, which simplifies the operation process of the clothes treatment device 100 during the washing process and reduces manual operation. The laundry detergent flows into the mixing chamber and mixes thoroughly with the water flowing in through the second water outlet 32c to form a uniform mixture. The mixture then flows through the pipeline into the second water inlet 20b and into the tubular assembly 20.

[0062] Regarding the arrangement of the base 10, the front side of the cylinder assembly 20 has a clothing loading and unloading port 21b. The liquid storage box 53 and the self-pump 52 are arranged along the front-back direction of the clothing treatment device 100. The liquid storage box 53 is located closer to the clothing loading and unloading port 21b than the self-pump 52. That is, the liquid storage box 53 is located near the front of the clothing treatment device 100. After the clothing treatment agent in the liquid storage box 53 is used up, the user can add clothing treatment agent to the liquid storage box 53. The front location makes it easier for the user to access, improving the convenience of user operation.

[0063] Please see Figure 4 and Figure 5In some embodiments, the drum assembly 20 includes a drum body 21, a door seal 22, and a spray head 23. The drum body 21 has a clothes handling chamber 21a and a clothes loading / unloading port 21b communicating with the clothes handling chamber 21a. The clothes handling chamber 21a is a space for placing clothes, providing the necessary environment for the washing process. The clothes loading / unloading port 21b facilitates the user to put in and take out clothes. The door seal 22 is installed on the front side of the drum body 21, which can improve the sealing of the clothes handling chamber 21a during the washing process and prevent water and foam from overflowing. The spray head 23 is mounted on the door seal 22. The outlet of the spray head 23 is connected to the clothes treatment chamber 21a. It should be noted that the drum body 21 is provided with the first water inlet 20a, which is connected to the water treatment module 41 through a pipe. The spray head 23 is provided with the second water inlet 20b, and another pipe is inserted into the second water inlet 20b. Water mixed with the clothes treatment agent is sprayed into the clothes treatment chamber 21a through the spray head 23, so that the clothes treatment agent is more evenly distributed on the clothes, improving the washing and care effect.
