[0045] As described in the background, the laundry treating apparatus is an apparatus for performing various treating operations on laundry. In the related art, the laundry treating apparatus having a drying function includes a mounting case, a heat exchange device, a compressor installed in the mounting case, a delivery pipe communicating with the compressor for delivering a refrigerant, and the heat exchange device is used in cooperation with the heat exchange device through the delivery pipe. When the compressor starts to operate, vibrations are inevitably generated due to the movement of the internal mechanical structure thereof; such vibrations are transmitted to the delivery pipe, causing the delivery pipe to also vibrate; and in the space inside the mounting case, there are many other components, and the vibrating delivery pipe is easily in contact with or collides with these components, that is, the so-called interference phenomenon, thereby causing abnormal noise and even affecting the normal operation of the laundry treating apparatus.

[0046] Referring to Figures 1 to 5 To solve the above problems, according to one aspect of the present application, embodiments of the present application provide a limiting member, the limiting member 400 is provided with a limiting channel 430, the part of the pipe segment of the delivery pipe 300 is arranged in the limiting channel 430, and the inner wall surface of the limiting channel 430 is used to limit the movement of the delivery pipe 300 in the direction intersecting the axial direction of the delivery pipe 300.

[0047] In the embodiment of the present application, the limiting piece 400 is used in a clothes processing device, which comprises a mounting shell 100, a compressor 200 and a conveying pipe 300. The compressor 200 is mounted in the mounting shell 100, the conveying pipe 300 is communicated with the compressor 200, and the limiting piece 400 is arranged in the mounting shell 100. The clothes processing device further comprises a heat exchange device, which comprises a condenser and an evaporator. The condenser and the evaporator are communicated with the compressor 200 through the conveying pipe 300. Part of the pipe section of the conveying pipe 300 can be directly in contact with the inner wall surface of the limiting channel 430, or can have a certain spacing between the inner wall surface of the limiting channel 430. The inner wall surface of the limiting channel 430 only needs to be able to limit the movement of part of the structure of the conveying pipe 300 in the direction intersecting the axial direction of the conveying pipe 300.

[0048] In the present application, when the conveying pipe 300 vibrates, the limiting channel 430 arranged therein restricts the conveying pipe 300 from moving in the direction intersecting the axial direction of the conveying pipe 300 due to vibration, so that the conveying pipe 300 can maintain a relatively stable position. Therefore, not only is the contact or collision (i.e. interference) between the conveying pipe 300 and other components avoided, the risk of damage to the conveying pipe 300 and other components is reduced, the service life of the conveying pipe 300 and other components is prolonged, and at the same time, it is also ensured that the other components can normally perform their respective functions and will not appear abnormal due to the vibration of the conveying pipe 300. In addition, the limiting piece 400 arranged therein also indirectly supports the conveying pipe 300, thereby ensuring the stability of the conveying pipe 300.

[0049] With reference to Figures 2 to 10 In an embodiment, the limiting channel 430 has two limiting side walls 431 spaced apart in the first direction, and the limiting side walls 431 are used to limit the movement of the conveying pipe 300 in the first direction.

[0050] In the present application, the two limiting side walls 431 used in cooperation play a role of bidirectional limiting, effectively limiting the reciprocating movement of the conveying pipe 300 in the first direction in the limiting channel 430, thereby avoiding the contact or collision between the conveying pipe 300 and other components, and ensuring the structural safety of the conveying pipe 300 and other components.

[0051] With reference to Figures 2 to 10 In an embodiment, the limiting channel 430 has a limiting bottom wall 432, and the limiting bottom wall 432 is used to limit the movement of the conveying pipe 300 in the second direction, which is perpendicular to the first direction.

[0052] In the embodiment, the limiting bottom wall 432 is located between the two limiting side walls 431. The limiting bottom wall 432 not only limits the one-way movement of the conveying pipe 300 in the second direction in the limiting passage 430, but also, in cooperation with the two limiting side walls 431, limits the conveying pipe 300 in the plane coexisting in the first direction and the second direction, effectively improves the limiting effect of the limiting passage 430, and enhances the stability of the conveying pipe 300 in the limiting passage 430.

[0053] With reference to Figures 2 to 10 In an embodiment, the limiting member 400 comprises a limiting body 410, the limiting body 410 has a first limiting surface 411, the limiting passage 430 penetrates through the first limiting surface 411, and an opening 433 is formed on the first limiting surface 411; the limiting structure 420 is protruded at the position of the opening 433 on the first limiting surface 411, and the limiting structure 420 is used for limiting the movement of the conveying pipe 300 in the second direction.

[0054] In the embodiment, the limiting bottom wall 432 is spaced apart from the opening 433 in the second direction, and the limiting bottom wall 432 is a circular arc surface recessed away from the first limiting surface 411. The conveying pipe 300 enters and exits the area between the two limiting side walls 431 through the opening 433. In other embodiments, the conveying pipe 300 can also directly insert or extract the limiting passage 430 to enter and exit the limiting passage 430.

[0055] The opening 433 not only facilitates the entry and exit of the conveying pipe 300 in the limiting passage 430, but also facilitates the inspection and maintenance of the conveying pipe 300 in the limiting passage 430 through the opening 433.

[0056] The limiting structure 420 and the limiting body 410 are integrally formed, which is convenient for manufacturing and processing; the specific structure of the limiting structure 420 can be determined according to actual needs. The limiting structure 420 not only limits the one-way movement of the conveying pipe 300 in the second direction in the limiting passage 430, but also, in cooperation with the limiting bottom wall 432, plays a role of bidirectional limiting, effectively limits the reciprocating movement of the conveying pipe 300 in the second direction in the limiting passage 430, and ensures the structural safety of the conveying pipe 300 and other components in the installation shell 100.

[0057] With reference to Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figures 6 to 10In an embodiment, the limiting body 410 further has a second limiting surface 412 and a third limiting surface 413 spaced apart along a third direction, and the first limiting surface 411 is located between the second limiting surface 412 and the third limiting surface 413, and the third direction, the second direction and the first direction are perpendicular to each other; and the limiting passage 430 penetrates through the second limiting surface 412 and the third limiting surface 413.

[0058] In the embodiment, the partial pipe section of the conveying pipe 300 can be arranged in the limiting passage 430 along the third direction, or arranged in the limiting passage 430 along a direction with an acute angle with the third direction; the arrangement of the conveying pipe 300 can be determined according to actual requirements, as long as the conveying pipe 300 can pass through the second limiting surface 412 and the third limiting surface 413 in sequence, and the specific arrangement is not limited herein. In other embodiments, the limiting member 400 can further have a fourth limiting surface 414, the fourth limiting surface 414 is spaced apart from the first limiting surface 411 along the second direction, and the limiting passage 430 can penetrate through the fourth limiting surface 414. For details, refer to the description of the fourth limiting surface 414 and the limiting passage 430. Figures 2 to 14 In an embodiment, the limiting structure 420 includes a limiting body 421 and a connecting body 422, the limiting body 421 is arranged on the limiting body 410 through the connecting body 422, and located on the side away from the limiting bottom wall 432 of the opening 433, and covers at least the opening 433.

[0059] In the embodiment, the connecting body 422 is fixedly arranged on the first limiting surface 411, and the limiting body 421 can completely cover the opening 433 or partially cover the opening 433. In addition, in order to facilitate the manufacturing of the limiting structure 420, the limiting structure 420 is an integral molding, and the connecting body 422 and the limiting body 421 are both long strip structures, and the length directions of the two are perpendicular to each other. In other embodiments, the limiting structure 420 can also have other shapes, and the specific shape is not limited herein.

[0060] The connecting body 422 arranged plays a role of connecting and stabilizing the limiting body 421; the limiting body 421 arranged not only can limit the one-way movement of the conveying pipe 300 located in the limiting passage 430 along the second direction, but also plays a role of isolation protection, on one hand, can prevent foreign matters from entering the inside of the limiting passage 430 through the opening 433, and on the other hand, can prevent other components from contacting the conveying pipe 300 located in the limiting passage 430.

[0061] For details, refer to the description of the fourth limiting surface 414 and the limiting passage 430. Figures 2 to 14 In an embodiment, the limiting body 421 has a mounting gap 434 with the first limiting surface 411, and the conveying pipe 300 enters or exits the limiting passage 430 through the mounting gap 434.

[0062] In the embodiment, the conveying pipe 300 enters and exits the limiting passage 430 through the region between the surface of the limiting body 421 close to the first limiting surface 411 and the first limiting surface 411, and the region is formed as the mounting gap 434. The mounting gap 434 is arranged to not only facilitate the installation of the conveying pipe 300 into the limiting passage 430, but also facilitate the extraction of the conveying pipe 300 from the limiting passage 430, thereby facilitating subsequent maintenance and replacement operations.

[0063] With reference to Figures 8 to 10 In an embodiment, the number of the conveying pipes 300 is multiple, the number of the limiting passages 430 is the same as the number of the conveying pipes 300, and the multiple conveying pipes 300 are arranged in one-to-one correspondence with the multiple limiting passages 430.

[0064] In the embodiment, the multiple limiting passages 430 are arranged in the first direction; in other embodiments, the multiple limiting passages 430 can also be arranged in the second direction, the third direction or other directions. The multiple limiting passages 430 are arranged to not only enable independent and accurate limiting of each conveying pipe 300, thereby ensuring that each conveying pipe 300 can stably operate at an accurate position and avoid mutual interference, but also facilitate optimization of space layout and maintenance management of each conveying pipe 300.

[0065] With reference to Figures 2 to 6 and Figures 8 to 14 In an embodiment, the number of the limiting passages 430 is two, the two limiting passages 430 are arranged in the first direction, the number of the limiting structures 420 is two, the two limiting structures 420 are arranged in one-to-one correspondence with the two limiting passages 430, respectively, the two limiting bodies 421 extend towards each other, and the two mounting gaps 434 are communicated.

[0066] In the embodiment, the number of the conveying pipes 300 is two, one of the two conveying pipes 300 is an output pipe, and the other is an input pipe. The two limiting bodies 421 extend towards each other, and the two mounting gaps 434 are communicated, which can make the two limiting passages 430 share the same mounting gap 434 and improve the convenience of the conveying pipe 300 entering and exiting the limiting passage 430. In other embodiments, the number of the limiting passages 430 can also be three, four or more, and the number of the limiting structures 420 can also be three, four or more; meanwhile, the two adjacent limiting bodies 421 can extend away from each other or extend towards each other.

[0067] With reference to Figures 2 to 7 and Figures 11 to 14In an embodiment, the outer diameter of the conveying pipe 300 is a conveying outer diameter, the distance between the two limiting side walls 431 is a first distance, and the distance between the limiting bottom wall 432 and the limiting body 421 is a second distance; the ratio of the conveying outer diameter to the first distance ranges from 1 to 4, and the ratio of the conveying outer diameter to the second distance ranges from 1 to 10.

[0068] In the embodiment, the conveying outer diameter ranges from 5 to 9 mm, the first distance ranges from 5 mm to 20 mm, and the second distance ranges from 10 mm to 50 mm. In a specific embodiment, the conveying outer diameter is 7 mm, the first distance is 12 mm, and the second distance is 31 mm. The above design not only limits the conveying pipe 300, but also leaves a margin for the jumping range of the conveying pipe 300, so that the conveying pipe 300 can jump within the limiting channel 430, thereby making the conveying pipe 300 better adapt to thermal expansion and contraction and other newly emerging interference factors, and effectively improving the adaptability of the conveying pipe 300.

[0069] Referring to Figures 2 to 14 In an embodiment, the limiting member 400 is an injection molded member. In the embodiment, the limiting member 400 is an injection molded plastic member; in other embodiments, the limiting member 400 can also be an injection molded rubber member. The limiting member 400 not only facilitates manufacturing and processing, but also avoids rigid friction and contact with the conveying pipe 300, thereby prolonging the service life of the conveying pipe 300.

[0070] Referring to Figures 1 to 14 According to another aspect of the present application, the embodiments of the present application also provide a clothes treatment apparatus, which comprises a mounting shell 100, a compressor 200, and a conveying pipe 300, the compressor 200 is installed in the mounting shell 100, and the conveying pipe 300 communicates with the compressor 200; the clothes treatment apparatus further comprises the above-mentioned limiting member 400, which is arranged in the mounting shell 100.

[0071] In the embodiments of the present application, the clothes treatment apparatus is a clothes dryer; the clothes treatment apparatus further comprises a heat exchange device, which comprises a condenser and an evaporator, and the condenser and the evaporator communicate with the compressor 200 through the conveying pipe 300.

[0072] In the present application, when the compressor 200 operates to generate vibration and transmits to the conveying pipe 300, the limiting channel 430 arranged restrains the conveying pipe 300 through the inner wall surface, limits the conveying pipe 300 from moving in the direction intersecting the conveying pipe 300 axially due to the vibration of the compressor 200, so that the conveying pipe 300 can maintain a relatively stable position during the operation of the compressor 200; thereby not only avoiding the conveying pipe 300 from contacting or colliding with (i.e. interfering with) other components in the installation shell 100, reducing the risk of damage to the conveying pipe 300 and other components, prolonging the service life of the conveying pipe 300 and other components, but also ensuring that the laundry treatment equipment can normally operate its various functions, and abnormal situations will not occur due to the vibration of the compressor 200. In addition, the limiting member 400 arranged also indirectly supports the conveying pipe 300, ensuring the stability of the conveying pipe 300.

[0073] Referring to Figures 2 to 6 and Figures 11 to 14 In an embodiment, the laundry treatment equipment further comprises a driving member 600, the driving member 600 is located on one side of the compressor 200 and is installed in the installation shell 100; the limiting member 400 is located between at least part of the structure of the compressor 200 and the driving member 600.

[0074] In the present embodiment, part of the structure of the driving member 600 is located on the side of the third limiting surface 413 away from the second limiting surface 412, and the compressor 200 is located on the side of the second limiting surface 412 away from the third limiting surface 413; at the same time, the driving member 600, the limiting member 400 and the compressor 200 can be sequentially arranged along the third direction. In other embodiments, the driving member 600 can be completely located on the side of the third limiting surface 413 away from the second limiting surface 412, and the driving member 600, the limiting member 400 and the compressor 200 can also be spaced apart along a direction with an acute angle with the third direction.

[0075] The limiting member 400 is located between at least part of the structure of the compressor 200 and the driving member 600, such a layout not only can balance the weight distribution of the laundry treatment equipment to some extent, thereby improving the stability of the laundry treatment equipment, but also can spatially pull the compressor and the driving member 600 apart, thereby reducing the mutual interference between them.

[0076] Referring to Figures 1 to 10 In an embodiment, the installation shell 100 comprises a base 110, part of the pipe section of the conveying pipe 300 is located on the side of the driving member 600 close to the base 110, and the limiting channel 430 is located on the side of the driving member 600 close to the base 110.

[0077] In the embodiment, the partial pipe section of the conveying pipe 300 is located at the side of the driving member 600 close to the base 110 in the second direction, and the limiting channel 430 is located at the side of the driving member 600 close to the base 110 in the second direction; meanwhile, the second direction is parallel to the height direction of the mounting shell 100. The limiting channel 430 is arranged to avoid the partial pipe section of the conveying pipe 300 located at the side of the driving member 600 close to the base 110 in the second direction from contacting or colliding with the driving member 600, thereby ensuring the integrity of the conveying pipe 300 and the driving member 600.

[0078] With reference to Figures 1 to 10 In an embodiment, the limiting member 400 is detachably mounted on the base 110. In the embodiment, the limiting member 400 is detachably mounted on the base 110 by means of connecting screws, clamping or insertion. The above design improves the dismounting efficiency of the limiting member 400.

[0079] With reference to Figures 1 to 10 In an embodiment, the limiting member 400 further has a fourth limiting surface 414, which is arranged in the second direction at a distance from the first limiting surface 411 and located at the side of the first limiting surface 411 close to the base 110; the fourth limiting surface 414 is attached to the base 110.

[0080] The above design not only enhances the stability of the limiting member 400 on the base 110, but also transmits the stress (such as internal pressure or external tension) transmitted by the conveying pipe 300 or other components to the base 110, thereby ensuring the stability of the limiting member 400.

[0081] With reference to Figures 1 to 5 In an embodiment, the base 110 is provided with a mounting structure 500, the mounting structure 500 is provided with a mounting through hole 510 arranged in the third direction, and the limiting member 400 is mounted in the mounting through hole 510; the limiting member 400 has a fifth limiting surface 415 and a sixth limiting surface 416 arranged in the first direction at a distance, and the mounting through hole 510 has mounting hole walls 511 arranged in the first direction at a distance, and the fifth limiting surface 415 and the sixth limiting surface 416 are respectively attached to the two mounting hole walls 511. The above design not only enhances the stability of the limiting member 400 on the base 110, but also facilitates the dismounting of the limiting member 400 into the mounting through hole 510.

[0082] With reference to Figure 6 , Figure 11 and Figure 13In an embodiment, the conveying pipe 300 comprises a plurality of pipe bodies 310 connected in sequence, and the length directions of two adjacent pipe bodies 310 have an included angle greater than or equal to 90°. In this embodiment, the conveying pipe 300 is a copper pipe. The above design helps the conveying pipe 300 to stretch and expand after vibration, effectively avoiding the breakage of the conveying pipe 300 after vibration, and effectively prolonging the service life of the conveying pipe 300.

[0083] In summary, the limiting member and the clothes treatment apparatus provided in the embodiment have at least the following beneficial technical effects: in the present application, when the compressor 200 generates vibration and transmits the vibration to the conveying pipe 300, the limiting passage 430 is arranged to constrain the conveying pipe 300 through the inner wall surface of the limiting passage 430, and limit the movement of the conveying pipe 300 in the direction intersecting the axial direction of the conveying pipe 300 due to the vibration of the compressor 200, so that the conveying pipe 300 can maintain a relatively stable position during the operation of the compressor 200; thereby not only avoiding the contact or collision (i.e. interference) between the conveying pipe 300 and other components in the mounting shell 100, reducing the risk of damage to the conveying pipe 300 and other components, prolonging the service life of the conveying pipe 300 and other components, but also ensuring that the clothes treatment apparatus can normally operate its various functions, and abnormal situations will not occur due to the vibration of the compressor 200. In addition, the limiting member 400 also indirectly supports the conveying pipe 300, ensuring the stability of the conveying pipe 300.

[0084] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present application, and is not intended to limit the present application. Any modifications, equivalent replacements and improvements made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
