[0041] The garment processing equipment includes a dryer, heat exchanger, compressor, and refrigerant pipes. The dryer has a drying chamber to hold the clothes. The equipment contains a heat exchange chamber and a receiving chamber that are isolated from each other. The heat exchange chamber is connected to the drying chamber, and the heat exchanger is located inside the heat exchange chamber. The heat exchanger heats and dries the airflow within the heat exchange chamber, allowing the heated airflow to dry the clothes in the drying chamber. The compressor is located inside the receiving chamber, and the heat exchanger is connected to the compressor via refrigerant pipes, allowing the refrigerant to circulate between the compressor and the heat exchanger. To prevent heat leakage from the heat exchange chamber, the refrigerant pipes are sealed through the partition wall between the heat exchange chamber and the receiving chamber using sealing elements.

[0042] In related technologies, the sealing element has a through hole, through which the refrigerant pipe passes before connecting to the heat exchanger. Passing the refrigerant pipe through the through hole is difficult, resulting in low assembly efficiency of the heat exchanger, refrigerant pipe and compressor.

[0043] In view of the above problems, the first aspect of this application provides a seal, a base assembly, and a garment processing device, which aims to solve the technical problem of low assembly efficiency of heat exchangers, refrigerant pipes, and compressors.

[0044] To illustrate the technical solution of this application, the following description is provided in conjunction with specific accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0045] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 5 This application provides a sealing element 1 for sealing the partition wall 213 that passes through the heat exchange chamber and the receiving chamber. The sealing element 1 has a through hole 11 for the refrigerant pipe 4 to pass through. The sealing element 1 also has a deformation joint 12 that communicates with the through hole 11. In the extending direction of the through hole 11, the deformation joint 12 passes through the sealing element 1.

[0046] The sealing member 1 provided in the application is provided with a deformation joint 12 communicating with the through hole 11, and the deformation joint 12 penetrates the sealing member 1 in the extension direction of the through hole 11. Therefore, when the refrigerant pipe 4 is inserted into the through hole 11, the sealing member 1 can be stretched at the deformation joint 12 to increase the space in the through hole 11, so as to provide sufficient space for the refrigerant pipe 4 to facilitate the insertion of the refrigerant pipe 4, thereby improving the assembly efficiency of the heat exchanger 3, the refrigerant pipe 4 and the compressor 5.

[0047] It should be noted that the stretching of the sealing member 1 at the deformation joint 12 when the refrigerant pipe 4 is inserted into the through hole 11 means that the sealing member 1 is deformable, so that the two side walls of the deformation joint 12 are away from each other.

[0048] Optionally, the sealing member 1 is made of rigid material, and the sealing member 1 comprises a first part and a second part located on the two sides of the deformation joint 12. One end of the second part away from the deformation joint 12 is rotatably connected to one end of the first part away from the deformation joint 12. The first part is provided with a first half hole, and the second part is provided with a second half hole. The first half hole and the second half hole can be combined to form the through hole 11. The second part can be rotated relative to the first part to be away from each other at the two side walls of the deformation joint 12, so as to increase the space in the through hole 11, provide sufficient space for the refrigerant pipe 4 to facilitate the insertion of the refrigerant pipe 4. The second part can be rotated relative to the first part to be close to each other at the two side walls of the deformation joint 12, so as to limit the refrigerant pipe 4 in the through hole 11 and prevent the refrigerant pipe 4 from being separated from the through hole 11.

[0049] Optionally, the sealing member 1 is made of elastic material. When the refrigerant pipe 4 is inserted through the sealing member 1 made of elastic material, the sealing member 1 can be deformed to be away from each other at the two side walls of the deformation joint 12 under the extrusion of the refrigerant pipe 4 or under the force applied by the production line staff, so as to increase the space in the through hole 11, provide sufficient space for the refrigerant pipe 4 to facilitate the insertion of the refrigerant pipe 4. After the refrigerant pipe 4 is inserted through the through hole 11 of the application, the sealing member 1 restores to the original state under the action of its own elasticity, so that the two side walls of the deformation joint 12 are close to each other, so as to limit the refrigerant pipe 4 in the through hole 11 and prevent the refrigerant pipe 4 from being separated from the through hole 11.

[0050] Please refer to Figure 1 In some embodiments, the deformation joint 12 penetrates the sealing member 1 in the radial direction of the through hole 11.

[0051] In the above embodiments, since the deformation joint 12 penetrates the sealing member 1 in the radial direction of the through hole 11, when the refrigerant pipe 4 is inserted through the through hole 11 of the above embodiments, the distance between the two side walls of the deformation joint 12 is large under the extrusion of the refrigerant pipe 4 or under the force applied by the production line staff, so as to provide sufficient space for the refrigerant pipe 4.

[0052] In some embodiments, the sealing member 1 is made of rigid material, and the end of the second part away from the first part is spaced apart from the end of the first part away from the second part to form the deformation seam 12 which penetrates the sealing member 1 in the radial direction of the through hole 11 and penetrates the sealing member 1 in the extension direction of the through hole 11.

[0053] In some embodiments, the sealing member 1 is made of elastic material, and the deformation seam 12 is a groove formed on the sealing member 1, the groove is a through groove 2131 which penetrates the sealing member 1 in the extension direction of the through hole 11, the groove opening communicates with the through hole 11, and the groove bottom penetrates the side wall of the through hole 11 to form the deformation seam 12 which penetrates the sealing member 1 in the radial direction of the through hole 11 and penetrates the sealing member 1 in the extension direction of the through hole 11.

[0054] Please refer to Figure 2 In some embodiments, at least one side wall of the deformation seam 12 is inclined away from the end of the through hole 11 in the direction away from the deformation seam 12.

[0055] By adopting the above technical solution, the two sides of the deformation seam 12 can enclose the guide groove 17, and the guide groove 17 penetrates the sealing member 1 in the extension direction of the through hole 11, and the guide groove 17 communicates with the through hole 11 through the deformation seam 12. When the refrigerant pipe 4 is inserted into the through hole 11 of the above-mentioned embodiments, the refrigerant pipe 4 can be first arranged horizontally in the guide groove 17, and then a pushing force is applied to the refrigerant pipe 4 to push the refrigerant pipe 4 to pass between the deformation seams 12 and be accommodated in the through hole 11.

[0056] Please refer to Figure 2 In the above-mentioned embodiments, at least one side wall of the deformation seam 12 includes a sealing surface and a guide inclined surface, the sealing surface and the guide inclined surface are sequentially connected in the radial direction of the through hole 11, and the guide inclined surface is located on the side of the sealing surface away from the through hole 11, the guide inclined surface includes oppositely arranged first and second ends, the first end is connected with the sealing surface, the second end is located on the side of the first end away from the sealing surface, and the second end is located on the side of the first end away from the deformation seam 12.

[0057] It should be noted that in the above-mentioned embodiments, if the two side walls of the deformation seam 12 are relatively far away from each other, the sealing member 1 cannot be restored to its original state.

[0058] To avoid the above problems, in some embodiments, the deformation slot 12 in the sealing member 1 made of elastic material can be a groove opened on the sealing member 1, and the groove extends through the sealing member 1 in the extension direction of the through hole 11, the groove opening communicates with the through hole 11, and the groove extends away from the through hole 11, and the groove includes two oppositely arranged groove side walls and groove bottom walls connected with the two groove side walls respectively. The two oppositely arranged groove side walls of the groove are the two side walls of the deformation slot 12.

[0059] When the refrigerant pipe 4 is inserted into the through hole 11 of the above-mentioned embodiments, under the extrusion of the refrigerant pipe 4 or the force applied by the production line staff, the two groove side walls of the groove move relative to the groove bottom wall, and the two groove side walls move away from each other to increase the space in the through hole 11. Since the groove bottom wall is connected with the two side walls respectively, the movement distance of the two groove side walls can be limited, so that the deformation degree of the sealing member 1 cannot cause the sealing member 1 to restore to its original state.

[0060] Please refer to Figure 1 In some embodiments, the sealing member 1 includes a plurality of abutting portions 13, and the abutting portions 13 are arranged on the inner side wall of the through hole 11, and the plurality of abutting portions 13 are arranged at intervals in the extension direction of the through hole 11.

[0061] When the sealing member 1 of the above-mentioned embodiments is used to fix the refrigerant pipe 4, the plurality of abutting portions 13 can clamp the refrigerant pipe 4 to prevent the refrigerant pipe 4 from being separated from the through hole 11.

[0062] It should be noted that the abutting portion 13 is made of elastic material, and after the refrigerant pipe 4 is inserted into the through hole 11 of the embodiments of the present application and the portions of the sealing member 1 located on both sides of the deformation slot 12 move close to each other, the abutting portion 13 can be deformed so that the abutting portion 13 can clamp the refrigerant pipe 4.

[0063] Please refer to Figure 1 In some embodiments, the abutting portion 13 has a ring structure, the outer ring end of the abutting portion 13 is connected to the inner side wall of the through hole 11, and in the extension direction of the through hole 11, the deformation slot 12 penetrates the abutting portion 13.

[0064] When the sealing member 1 of the above-mentioned embodiments is used to fix the refrigerant pipe 4, the inner ring end of the abutting portion 13 can be arranged around the circumferential side of the refrigerant pipe 4, so that the abutting portion 13 can clamp the refrigerant pipe 4 to prevent the refrigerant pipe 4 from being separated from the through hole 11.

[0065] And in the above-mentioned embodiments, in the extension direction of the through hole 11, the deformation slot 12 penetrates the abutting portion 13, so that the portions of the abutting portion 13 located on both sides of the deformation slot 12 can move away from each other to facilitate the insertion of the refrigerant pipe 4.

[0066] In some embodiments, the expansion joint 12 extends through the support portion 13 in the radial direction of the through hole 11.

[0067] In the above embodiment, since the expansion joint 12 passes through the supporting part 13 in the radial direction of the through hole 11, when the refrigerant pipe 4 passes through the through hole 11 in the above embodiment, under the squeezing action of the refrigerant pipe 4 or under the force applied by the production line worker, the portions of the supporting part 13 located on both sides of the expansion joint 12 can be far apart from each other, so as to provide sufficient space for the refrigerant pipe 4 to move.

[0068] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 6 In some embodiments, the seal 1 includes a first sealing part 14 and a second sealing part 15. The first sealing part 14 is disposed on the partition wall 213, and a through hole 11 is formed on the first sealing part 14. The second sealing part 15 is disposed on the periphery of the first sealing part 14, and the second sealing part 15 is attached to the side wall of the partition wall 213 facing the heat exchange cavity, and / or, the second sealing part 15 is attached to the side wall of the partition wall 213 facing the receiving cavity.

[0069] When the seal 1 in the above embodiments is applied to the garment processing equipment, the second sealing part 15 can cover the gap between the first sealing part 14 and the partition to prevent the high-temperature dry gas in the heat exchange chamber from flowing out of the heat exchange chamber from between the first sealing part 14 and the partition, thereby preventing heat loss in the heat exchange chamber. Furthermore, when the second sealing part 15 is affixed to the side wall of the partition wall 213 facing the heat exchange chamber, and / or when the second sealing part 15 is affixed to the side wall of the partition wall 213 facing the receiving cavity, the second sealing part 15 can abut against the partition wall 213 to define the position of the seal 1, facilitating the positioning of the seal 1 when it is applied to the garment processing equipment.

[0070] Please refer to Figure 6 In some embodiments, a second sealing part 15 is provided. When the first sealing part 14 is provided on the partition, the second sealing part 15 is attached to the side wall of the partition wall 213 facing the heat exchange chamber, or the second sealing part 15 is attached to the side wall of the partition wall 213 facing the receiving chamber.

[0071] In some embodiments, two second sealing portions 15 are provided. The two second sealing portions 15 are spaced apart in the extending direction of the through hole 11. When the first sealing portion 14 is provided on the partition, one of the second sealing portions 15 is attached to the side wall of the partition wall 213 facing the heat exchange chamber, and the other second sealing portion 15 is attached to the side wall of the partition wall 213 facing the receiving chamber.

[0072] It should be noted that the refrigerant inlet and the refrigerant outlet of the heat exchanger 3 in the related art are located at two ends of the heat exchanger 3, that is, the distance between the refrigerant inlet and the refrigerant outlet is far, so that the two refrigerant pipes 4 connected to the heat exchanger 3 need to be sealed through a sealing piece 1 respectively to pass through the partition wall 213 between the heat exchange cavity and the containing cavity. When the heat exchanger 3 is assembled in the clothes processing equipment, the two refrigerant pipes 4 are respectively passed through one sealing piece 1, and then the two refrigerant pipes 4 are connected to the refrigerant inlet and the refrigerant outlet of the heat exchanger 3, and then the heat exchanger 3 is installed in the clothes processing equipment, and the sealing piece 1 is arranged on the partition wall 213 between the heat exchange cavity and the containing cavity. Two independent sealing pieces 1 need to be adjusted in position during installation, which is not convenient for assembly line workers to assemble and affects the assembly efficiency.

[0073] In some embodiments, two through holes 11 are formed in the sealing piece 1, and the structure of the heat exchanger 3 is adjusted before the refrigerant pipe 4 is sealed through the partition wall 213 between the heat exchange cavity and the containing cavity by the sealing piece 1 of the present application. The distance between the refrigerant inlet of the heat exchanger 3 and the refrigerant outlet of the heat exchanger 3 is reduced, so that the two refrigerant pipes 4 connected to the heat exchanger 3 can be sealed through the partition wall 213 between the heat exchange cavity and the containing cavity by one sealing piece 1 of the present application. The positions of the sealing piece 1, the refrigerant pipe 4 and the heat exchanger 3 are adjusted to facilitate assembly line workers to assemble and save assembly time.

[0074] For reference Figure 5 The second aspect of the present application provides a base assembly 2, which comprises a base 21 and the sealing piece 1 of the first aspect of the present application.

[0075] The base 21 has a heat exchange groove 211 for accommodating the heat exchanger 3, a containing groove 212 for accommodating the compressor 5, and a partition wall 213 separating the heat exchange groove 211 and the containing groove 212. The partition wall 213 is provided with a through groove 2131 communicating the heat exchange groove 211 and the containing groove 212; the sealing piece 1 is arranged in the through groove 2131, and the through hole 11 communicates the heat exchange groove 211 and the containing groove 212.

[0076] By applying the sealing piece 1 of the first aspect of the present application to the base assembly 2, when the refrigerant pipe 4 penetrates the through hole 11, the sealing piece 1 can stretch at the deformation joint 12 to increase the space in the through hole 11, providing sufficient space for the refrigerant pipe 4 to move, so as to facilitate the penetration of the refrigerant pipe 4, thereby improving the assembly efficiency of the heat exchanger 3, the refrigerant pipe 4 and the compressor 5.

[0077] When the heat exchanger 3 is assembled on the base assembly 2 of the embodiment of the present application, the heat exchanger 3 is first placed in the heat exchange groove 211 on the base 21, and the compressor 5 is placed in the containing groove 212 on the base 21, then the refrigerant pipe 4 is arranged in the sealing member 1, after that one end of the refrigerant pipe 4 is connected to the compressor 5, the other end of the refrigerant pipe 4 is connected to the heat exchanger 3, and finally the sealing member 1 is clamped in the through groove 2131.

[0078] It should be noted that the clamping of the sealing member 1 in the through groove 2131 facilitates the sealing connection of the sealing member 1 on the partition wall 213.

[0079] Please refer to Figure 6 In some embodiments, the through groove 2131 has two oppositely arranged groove inner side walls, and the two side walls of the deformation seam 12 are arranged at intervals in the distribution direction of the two groove inner side walls.

[0080] By using the above technical solution, when the sealing member 1 is clamped in the through groove 2131, the two oppositely arranged groove inner side walls of the through groove 2131 can limit and clamp the sealing member 1, so as to prevent the two side walls of the deformation seam 12 from moving away from each other, thereby preventing the refrigerant pipe 4 from being separated from the sealing member 1.

[0081] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the base assembly 2 further comprises a cover plate 22, the cover plate 22 is connected with the base 21, and the cover plate 22 covers the slot of the heat exchange groove 211, and the cover plate 22 and the heat exchange groove 211 form a heat exchange cavity.

[0082] In the above embodiment, the cover plate 22 can form a heat exchange cavity with the heat exchange groove 211.

[0083] It should be noted that in the laundry treating apparatus, in order to prevent heat loss in the heat exchange cavity, the heat exchange cavity needs to be sealingly arranged, therefore in some embodiments, the cover plate 22 is attached to the end face around the slot of the heat exchange groove 211, so that the cover plate 22 can be sealingly connected with the base 21, thereby enhancing the sealing effect of the heat exchange cavity.

[0084] Please refer to Figure 6 In some embodiments, the sealing member 1 is flush with the end face around the slot of the through groove 2131, and the cover plate 22 is attached to the end face around the slot of the through groove 2131 and the sealing member 1.

[0085] In the above embodiment, since the sealing member 1 is flush with the end face around the slot of the through groove 2131, the cover plate 22 can be attached to the end face around the slot of the through groove 2131 and the sealing member 1, so that the heat exchange cavity can be sealed at the contact position of the cover plate 22 and the sealing member 1, thereby preventing the high-temperature dry gas in the heat exchange cavity from flowing out of the heat exchange cavity from the contact position of the cover plate 22 and the sealing member 1, and preventing heat loss in the heat exchange cavity.

[0086] Please refer to Figure 4 to Figure 6 In some embodiments, the partition wall 213 is provided with a first limiting through slot 2132, the sealing member 1 is provided with a second limiting through slot 16 communicated with the first limiting through slot 2132, and part of the cover plate 22 is accommodated in the first limiting through slot 2132 and the second limiting through slot 16.
