Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of clothing processing technology, and in particular to a water baffle, a base assembly, and clothing processing equipment. Background Technology

[0002] As people's living standards continue to improve, clothes dryers have gradually entered people's lives and become an indispensable electrical appliance in daily life. During the drying process, the clothes dryer will input drying gas into the drying drum. The drying gas carries the water vapor in the drying drum and flows from the drum into the heat exchange chamber. When the gas comes into contact with the evaporator in the heat exchange chamber, the temperature of the water vapor carried by the gas decreases, forming condensate and collecting in the base.

[0003] In related technologies, a baffle plate is installed on the base, dividing the heat exchange chamber into a water storage space and a heat exchange space. The baffle plate supports the evaporator, condenser, and other components within the heat exchange space, preventing them from contacting the condensate collected in the base. The baffle plate also has water collection holes, allowing condensate formed when gas contacts the evaporator to flow from the heat exchange space to the water storage space. However, during the drying process in a clothes dryer, the gas flows within the heat exchange space, causing the gas pressure there to be lower than that in the water storage space. This makes it difficult for the condensate formed when gas contacts the evaporator to flow through the water collection holes to the water storage space, resulting in condensate accumulating on the baffle plate and causing the evaporator, condenser, and other components to come into contact with the condensate.

Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this application, "multiple" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0034] In this specification, references to "one embodiment," "some embodiments," or simply "embodiment" mean that one or more embodiments of this application include a specific feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with that embodiment. Therefore, the phrases "in one embodiment," "in some embodiments," "in other embodiments," "in still other embodiments," etc., appearing in different parts of 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, specific features, structures, or characteristics may be combined in any suitable manner.

[0035] As people's living standards continue to improve, clothes dryers have gradually entered people's lives and become an indispensable electrical appliance in daily life. During the drying process, the clothes dryer will input drying gas into the drying drum. The drying gas carries the water vapor in the drying drum and flows from the drum into the heat exchange chamber. When the gas comes into contact with the evaporator in the heat exchange chamber, the temperature of the water vapor carried by the gas decreases, forming condensate and collecting in the base.

[0036] In related technologies, a baffle plate is installed on the base, dividing the heat exchange chamber into a water storage space and a heat exchange space. The baffle plate supports the evaporator, condenser, and other components within the heat exchange space, preventing them from contacting the condensate collected in the base. The baffle plate also has water collection holes, allowing condensate formed when gas contacts the evaporator to flow from the heat exchange space to the water storage space. However, during the drying process in a clothes dryer, the gas flows within the heat exchange space, causing the gas pressure there to be lower than that in the water storage space. This makes it difficult for the condensate formed when gas contacts the evaporator to flow through the water collection holes to the water storage space, resulting in condensate accumulating on the baffle plate and causing the evaporator, condenser, and other components to come into contact with the condensate.

[0037] It should be noted that in clothing processing equipment, the heat exchange space is a portion of the circulating air duct. Therefore, the heat exchange space needs to be sealed as much as possible; that is, the baffle plate needs to abut against the inner wall of the heat exchange tank to prevent high-temperature gas in the heat exchange space from flowing out through the gap between the baffle plate and the inner wall of the heat exchange tank, thus reducing heat loss. Therefore, when the heat exchange space and the water storage space are not connected, the air pressure in the heat exchange space will be lower than that in the water storage space when gas flows. This not only makes it difficult for condensate to flow to the water storage space through the water collection holes, causing condensate to accumulate on the baffle plate, but in severe cases, condensate in the water storage space can also seep back into the heat exchange space through the water collection holes and between the baffle plate and the inner wall of the heat exchange tank.

[0038] In related technologies, the heat exchange space and water storage space in garment processing equipment are primarily connected by a water collection hole. Under normal operating conditions, the heat exchange space is located above the water storage space. Condensate collected at the water collection hole flows from the heat exchange space into the water storage space under its own weight. When there is little condensate, the water collection hole will not be blocked, allowing the heat exchange space and water storage space to remain connected. When gas flows within the heat exchange space, the connection between the two spaces balances the gas pressure, allowing condensate to flow smoothly into the water storage space through the water collection hole. When there is a lot of condensate, it will block the water collection hole, causing the heat exchange space and the water storage space to no longer be connected. When the gas flows in the heat exchange space, the gas pressure in the heat exchange space is lower than that in the water storage space because the heat exchange space and the water storage space are no longer connected. This makes it difficult for the condensate to flow to the water storage space through the water collection hole, causing the condensate to collect on the baffle plate.

[0039] In view of the above problems, this application provides a water baffle, a base assembly, and a clothing treatment device to solve the technical problem of the device coming into contact with condensate.

[0040] To illustrate the technical solution of this application, the following description is provided in conjunction with specific accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0041] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 This application provides a baffle plate 2 for dividing the space inside the heat exchange tank 11 into a water storage space 111 and a heat exchange space 112. The water storage space 111 is located between the bottom of the heat exchange tank 11 and the baffle plate 2, and the heat exchange space 112 is located on the side of the baffle plate 2 away from the bottom of the heat exchange tank 11. The baffle plate 2 has a pressure relief through hole 211 that connects the water storage space 111 and the heat exchange space 112.

[0042] When the baffle plate 2 provided in this application is applied to a clothing processing device, in the case of a large amount of condensate, the pressure relief through hole 211 connects the water storage space 111 and the heat exchange space 112, so that the air pressure in the heat exchange space 112 and the air pressure in the water storage space 111 are kept in balance. This helps the condensate formed when the gas comes into contact with the evaporator to flow into the water storage space 111 under its own gravity, thereby preventing the evaporator, condenser and other devices from coming into contact with condensate.

[0043] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some embodiments, the baffle plate 2 is provided with an evaporator placement groove 212, and the pressure relief hole 211 is located downstream of the evaporator placement groove 212 along the flow direction of the airflow in the heat exchange space 112.

[0044] In the above embodiment, the evaporator placement slot 212 is used to place the evaporator. When the airflow flows through the evaporator placement slot 212, the airflow will contact the evaporator in the evaporator placement slot 212, causing the water vapor carried in the airflow to decrease in temperature and condense to form condensate. The condensate collects in the evaporator placement slot 212 under its own gravity. The evaporator placement slot 212 can limit the position of the condensate and prevent the condensate from flowing to the pressure relief hole 211, so as to prevent the pressure relief hole 211 from being blocked by the condensate. Thus, the heat exchange space 112 and the water storage space 111 can remain connected at the pressure relief hole 211.

[0045] It should be noted that after the airflow passes through the evaporator in the evaporator placement slot 212, the water vapor carried in the airflow will be greatly reduced. In the above embodiment, the pressure relief hole 211 is located downstream of the evaporator placement slot 212, so that the airflow carrying less water vapor in the pressure relief hole 211 can prevent the water vapor in the airflow flowing through the pressure relief hole 211 from condensing into condensate at the pressure relief hole 211, and can prevent the pressure relief hole 211 from being blocked by condensate, so that the heat exchange space 112 and the water storage space 111 can remain connected at the pressure relief hole 211.

[0046] Please refer to Figure 2 In some embodiments, the baffle plate 2 is also provided with a trap plate 213, which is located downstream of the pressure relief through hole 211 along the flow direction of the airflow in the heat exchange space 112 (X direction in the figure).

[0047] It should be noted that in the clothing processing equipment, along the flow direction of the airflow in the heat exchange space 112, a moisture absorption and dehumidification component is also provided downstream of the evaporator. After the airflow flows through the evaporator in the evaporator placement tank 212, most of the water vapor carried in the airflow condenses into condensate, while a small portion of the water vapor carried in the airflow continues to flow with the airflow. The moisture absorption and dehumidification component can adsorb the remaining water vapor in the airflow, so that the airflow flowing out of the heat exchange space 112 is dry gas.

[0048] In the above embodiment, by providing a retaining plate 213 on the baffle plate 2, and along the flow direction of the airflow in the heat exchange space 112, the retaining plate 213 is located downstream of the pressure relief through hole 211. After the airflow passes through the evaporator in the evaporator placement slot 212, the airflow will flow towards the retaining plate 213. When the airflow contacts the retaining plate 213, the water vapor carried in the airflow can be collected on the retaining plate 213 to reduce the water vapor carried in the airflow flowing towards the moisture absorption and dehumidification component, thereby improving the working efficiency of the moisture absorption and dehumidification component and improving the drying efficiency of the clothing processing equipment.

[0049] In the above embodiment, as the amount of water vapor collected on the intercepting plate 213 increases, the water vapor can condense into condensate on the intercepting plate 213, and the condensate on the intercepting plate 213 can collect on the baffle plate 2 under its own gravity. The intercepting plate 213 is located downstream of the pressure relief hole 211, which allows the condensate collected on the baffle plate 2 to flow into the water storage space 111 through the pressure relief hole 211.

[0050] Please refer to Figure 2 In some embodiments, the pressure relief through hole 211 is located at the end where the baffle plate 2 is connected to the intercepting plate 213.

[0051] In this embodiment, by setting the pressure relief through hole 211 at the end where the baffle plate 2 connects to the intercepting plate 213, the condensate condensed on the intercepting plate 213 can flow directly to the pressure relief through hole 211 under its own gravity, and then flow into the water storage space 111 through the pressure relief through hole 211, which can prevent the condensate condensed on the intercepting plate 213 from accumulating on the baffle plate 2.

[0052] It should be noted that when the water vapor trapped by the intercepting plate 213 is small, the condensate on the intercepting plate 213 is small, and the pressure relief hole 211 will not be blocked by the condensate, so that the heat exchange space 112 and the water storage space 111 can remain connected at the pressure relief hole 211. When the gas flows in the heat exchange space 112, since the heat exchange space 112 and the water storage space 111 remain connected, the gas pressure in the heat exchange space 112 and the gas pressure in the water storage space 111 can be balanced, so that the condensate can flow smoothly into the water storage space 111. However, when the intercepting plate 213 traps a large amount of water vapor, a large amount of condensate will condense on the intercepting plate 213. This will prevent the condensate from flowing into the water storage space 111 in time through the pressure relief hole 211, which will block the pressure relief hole 211 and cause the heat exchange space 112 and the water storage space 111 to no longer be connected. When the gas flows in the heat exchange space 112, the gas pressure in the heat exchange space 112 is lower than the gas pressure in the water storage space 111 because the heat exchange space 112 and the water storage space 111 are no longer connected. This makes it difficult for the condensate to flow into the water storage space 111, causing the condensate to collect on the baffle plate 2.

[0053] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 In view of the above problems, in some embodiments, the baffle plate 2 is also provided with a first water collection through hole 214 that connects to the water storage space 111, and the first water collection through hole 214 is located between the outer wall of the evaporator placement groove 212 and the intercepting plate 213.

[0054] In the above embodiment, when there is a lot of condensate on the intercepting plate 213, the first water collection hole 214 can assist the pressure relief hole 211 in timely draining the condensate on the intercepting plate 213 into the water storage space 111, thereby preventing the condensate from blocking the pressure relief hole 211.

[0055] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some embodiments, the surface of the baffle plate 2 facing the heat exchange space 112 is inclined toward the water storage space 111 in the direction from the pressure relief through hole 211 to the first water collection through hole 214.

[0056] By adopting the above technical solution, when there is a lot of condensate on the intercepting plate 213, the condensate on the intercepting plate 213 can flow to the surface of the waterproof plate facing the heat exchange space 112 under its own gravity, and flow along the surface of the waterproof plate facing the heat exchange space 112 to the first water collection hole 214, which can prevent the condensate from blocking the pressure relief hole 211.

[0057] It should be noted that, under normal operating conditions of the clothing processing equipment, the heat exchange space 112 is located above the water storage space 111. The baffle plate 2 separates the heat exchange space 112 and the water storage space 111. From the pressure relief hole 211 to the first water collection hole 214, the surface of the baffle plate 2 facing the heat exchange space 112 gradually decreases, so that the condensate can flow along the surface of the baffle plate facing the heat exchange space 112 to the first water collection hole 214.

[0058] In some embodiments, the relative positions of the first water collection through-hole 214, the pressure relief through-hole 211, and the intercepting plate 213 can be as follows: Figure 2 As shown: along the flow direction of the airflow in the heat exchange space 112 (X direction in the figure), the first water collection through hole 214 is located upstream of the pressure relief through hole 211, and the intercepting plate 213 is located downstream of the pressure relief through hole 211. The pressure relief through hole 211 is located at the end where the baffle plate 2 and the intercepting plate 213 are connected. In the direction from the pressure relief through hole 211 to the first water collection through hole 214, the surface of the baffle plate 2 facing the heat exchange space 112 is inclined towards the water storage space 111.

[0059] In some embodiments, the relative positions of the first water collection hole 214, the pressure relief hole 211, and the intercepting plate 213 can be as follows: along the flow direction of the airflow in the heat exchange space 112, the intercepting plate 213 is located downstream of the pressure relief hole 211, and both the first water collection hole 214 and the pressure relief hole 211 are located at the ends where the baffle plate 2 connects to the intercepting plate 213; and from the pressure relief hole 211 to the first water collection hole 214, the surface of the baffle plate 2 facing the heat exchange space 112 is inclined towards the water storage space 111. In this embodiment, the condensate condensed on the intercepting plate 213 can flow directly to the first water collection hole 214 and the pressure relief hole 211 under its own gravity, and flow into the water storage space 111 through the first water collection hole 214 and the pressure relief hole 211, which can prevent the condensate condensed on the intercepting plate 213 from accumulating on the baffle plate 2, and can also prevent the condensate from blocking the pressure relief hole 211.

[0060] In some embodiments, the relative positions of the first water collection through-hole 214, the pressure relief through-hole 211, and the intercepting plate 213 can be as follows: along the flow direction of the airflow in the heat exchange space 112, the first water collection through-hole 214 is located downstream of the pressure relief through-hole 211, the intercepting plate 213 is located downstream of the pressure relief through-hole 211, and the first water collection through-hole 214 is located at the end where the baffle plate 2 connects to the intercepting plate 213; and in the direction from the pressure relief through-hole 211 to the first water collection through-hole 214, the surface of the baffle plate 2 facing the heat exchange space 112 is inclined towards the water storage space 111. In this embodiment, the condensate condensed on the intercepting plate 213 can flow directly to the first water collection through-hole 214 under its own gravity, and flow into the water storage space 111 through the first water collection through-hole 214, which can prevent the condensate condensed on the intercepting plate 213 from accumulating on the baffle plate 2, and can also prevent the condensate from blocking the pressure relief through-hole 211.

[0061] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some embodiments, the baffle plate 2 is also provided with a second water collection hole 215 that penetrates the bottom of the evaporator placement slot 212 and is connected to the water storage space 111.

[0062] By adopting the above technical solution, the condensate collected in the evaporator placement tank 212 can flow to the water storage space 111 through the second water collection hole 215.

[0063] Please refer to Figure 3 In some embodiments, under normal operating conditions of the clothing processing equipment, the opening of the second water collection hole 215 facing the heat exchange space 112 is located at the lowest position on the bottom surface of the evaporator placement tank 212.

[0064] By adopting the above technical solution, as much of the condensate collected in the evaporator placement tank 212 as possible flows to the water storage space 111 through the second water collection hole 215.

[0065] It should be noted that when there is a lot of condensate stored in the water storage space 111, the condensate in the water storage space 111 will block the pressure relief hole 211, the first water collection hole 214 and the second water collection hole 215.

[0066] In some embodiments, the end face of the pressure relief through hole 211 facing the opening of the water storage space 111 is higher than the end face of the second water collection through hole 215 facing the opening of the water storage space 111.

[0067] In some embodiments, the end face of the pressure relief through hole 211 facing the opening of the water storage space 111 is higher than the end face of the first water collection through hole 214 facing the opening of the water storage space 111.

[0068] In some embodiments, the end face of the first water collection hole 214 facing the opening of the water storage space 111 and the end face of the second water collection hole 215 facing the opening of the water storage space 111 are both lower than the end face of the pressure relief hole 211 facing the opening of the water storage space 111.

[0069] By adopting the above technical solution, when there is a lot of condensate stored in the water storage space 111, the condensate in the water storage space 111 will first block the first water collection hole 214 and / or the second water collection hole 215, so that the pressure relief hole 211 can continue to balance the air pressure in the heat exchange space 112 and the air pressure in the water storage space 111.

[0070] It should be noted that as the amount of condensate stored in the water storage space 111 continues to increase, the condensate in the water storage space 111 will back-infiltrate into the heat exchange space 112 through the pressure relief hole 211, the first water collection hole 214, and the second water collection hole 215. Since the second water collection hole 215 is located at the bottom of the evaporator placement tank 212, the condensate that back-infiltrates into the heat exchange space 112 through the second water collection hole 215 will collect in the evaporator placement tank 212. When there is too much condensate in the evaporator placement tank 212, the evaporator in the evaporator placement tank 212 will come into contact with the condensate, which may affect the normal operation of the evaporator.

[0071] In some embodiments, the end face of the pressure relief through hole 211 facing the opening of the heat exchange space 112 is lower than the end face of the second water collection through hole 215 facing the opening of the heat exchange space 112.

[0072] In some embodiments, the end face of the first water collection hole 214 facing the opening of the heat exchange space 112 is lower than the end face of the second water collection hole 215 facing the opening of the heat exchange space 112.

[0073] In some embodiments, the end face of the first water collection hole 214 facing the opening of the heat exchange space 112 and the end face of the pressure relief hole 211 facing the opening of the heat exchange space 112 are both lower than the end face of the second water collection hole 215 facing the opening of the heat exchange space 112.

[0074] By adopting the above technical solution, when the condensate stored in the water storage space 111 continues to increase, the condensate in the water storage space 111 will first seep back into the heat exchange space 112 through the pressure relief hole 211 and / or the first water collection hole 214, so as to avoid affecting the normal operation of the evaporator.

[0075] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 This application provides a base 1 assembly, including a base 1 and a water baffle 2 as described in the first aspect embodiment above.

[0076] The base 1 is provided with a heat exchange tank 11; the baffle plate 2 is provided on the base 1, and the baffle plate 2 is spaced apart from the bottom of the heat exchange tank 11 to divide the space inside the heat exchange tank 11 into a water storage space 111 and a heat exchange space 112. The water storage space 111 is located between the bottom of the heat exchange tank 11 and the baffle plate 2, and the heat exchange space 112 is located on the side of the baffle plate 2 away from the bottom of the heat exchange tank 11.

[0077] In the base 1 assembly of this application embodiment, the pressure relief through hole 211 connects the water storage space 111 and the heat exchange space 112, so that the air pressure in the heat exchange space 112 and the air pressure in the water storage space 111 are kept in balance, which helps the condensate formed when the gas comes into contact with the evaporator to flow to the water storage space 111, thereby preventing the evaporator, condenser and other devices from coming into contact with the condensate.

[0078] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some embodiments, the heat exchange tank 11 has a first inner sidewall 113 and a second inner sidewall (not shown in the figure) disposed opposite to each other, the baffle plate 2 is disposed between the first inner sidewall 113 and the second inner sidewall, and the two ends of the intercepting plate 213 abut against the first inner sidewall 113 and the second inner sidewall respectively.

[0079] In the above embodiment, the two ends of the intercepting plate 213 abut against the first inner sidewall 113 and the second inner sidewall, respectively. This allows the intercepting plate 213, the baffle plate 2, the first inner sidewall 113, and the second inner sidewall to enclose and form a condensate tank. When the condensate on the intercepting plate 213 collects on the baffle plate 2, the condensate is confined within the condensate tank to prevent it from flowing into the condenser, moisture-absorbing and dehumidifying components, and other devices inside the clothing processing equipment.

[0080] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4In some embodiments, the base 1 is provided with a limiting groove 12, and the baffle plate 2 includes a main body 21 and a snap-fit ​​part 22. The main body 21 is used to divide the space in the heat exchange tank 11 into a water storage space 111 and a heat exchange space 112. The pressure relief through hole 211 is opened on the main body 21, and the snap-fit ​​part 22 is provided on the surface of the main body 21 facing the bottom of the heat exchange tank 11, and the snap-fit ​​part 22 is located in the limiting groove 12.

[0081] It should be noted that in the garment processing equipment, the heat exchange space 112 is a part of the circulating air duct. Therefore, the heat exchange space 112 needs to be sealed as much as possible. That is, the baffle plate 2 needs to abut against the inner wall of the heat exchange tank 11 to prevent the high-temperature gas in the heat exchange space 112 from flowing out of the heat exchange space 112 through the gap between the baffle plate 2 and the inner wall of the heat exchange tank 11, thereby reducing heat loss. Therefore, when the heat exchange space 112 and the water storage space 111 are not connected, when gas flows in the heat exchange space 112, the gas pressure in the heat exchange space 112 will be lower than the gas pressure in the water storage space 111. In severe cases, condensate in the water storage space 111 may even back-seep into the heat exchange space 112 through the gap between the baffle plate 2 and the inner wall of the heat exchange tank 11.

[0082] In the above embodiment, the snap-fit ​​part 22 is located in the limiting groove 12, so that the snap-fit ​​part 22 and the side wall of the limiting groove 12 are staggered to prevent the condensate in the water storage space 111 from back seeping into the heat exchange space 112 from between the baffle plate 2 and the heat exchange groove 11.

[0083] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the baffle plate 2 further includes a baffle portion 23, which is disposed on the surface of the main body 21 facing the bottom of the heat exchange tank 11, and the baffle portion 23 is located on the side of the outer wall of the limiting groove 12 away from the snap-fit ​​portion 22.

[0084] By adopting the above technical solution, the water-blocking part 23 can cover the gap between the limiting groove 12 and the main body part 21 to prevent the condensate in the water storage space 111 from flowing to the gap between the limiting groove 12 and the main body part 21, so as to further prevent the condensate in the water storage space 111 from back seeping into the heat exchange space 112 from between the water-blocking plate 2 and the heat exchange groove 11.

[0085] Please refer to Figure 3 In some embodiments, the bottom of the heat exchange tank 11 is provided with a support rib 13, and the main body 21 is mounted on the support rib 13.

[0086] By adopting the above technical solution, the strength of the water baffle 2 can be enhanced to prevent the water baffle 2 from deforming.

[0087] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted in the second aspect of this application is: a clothing processing device, including the base assembly of the first aspect embodiment described above.

[0088] By applying the base assembly of the first aspect embodiment to the clothing processing equipment, the pressure relief through hole 211 connects the water storage space 111 and the heat exchange space 112 of the clothing processing equipment, so that the air pressure in the heat exchange space 112 and the air pressure in the water storage space 111 are kept in balance. This helps the condensate formed when the gas comes into contact with the evaporator to flow to the water storage space 111, thereby preventing the evaporator, condenser and other devices in the clothing processing equipment from coming into contact with the condensate.

[0089] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this application, and are not intended to limit them. Although this application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application, and should all be included within the protection scope of this application.
