Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of washing machine controller technology, and in particular to an intelligent automatic controller for washing machines. Background Technology

[0002] The intelligent washing machine controller is an indispensable key component of modern washing machines. Its main function is to automatically adjust and manage each stage of the washing process. By using advanced sensors, algorithms, and network connectivity technologies, the intelligent washing machine controller can optimize washing results, improve energy efficiency, reduce water and electricity waste, and provide a more flexible user experience, allowing users to enjoy a more efficient, energy-saving, and convenient laundry experience.

[0003] In actual use, the existing automatic controllers of smart washing machines are not conducive to circulating drying, which leads to moisture and corrosion of the internal components of the controller, affecting the normal operation of the controller.

[0004] A search of existing patents revealed a smart heat dissipation washing machine controller (publication number: CN218989654U), comprising a control box and a heat dissipation mechanism disposed inside the control box. The heat dissipation mechanism includes a heat absorption component, a water cooling component, and an air cooling component. The heat absorption component includes a heat absorption cold head, a connecting water pipe, and a micro water pump. The heat absorption cold head is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the control box, and the connecting water pipe is disposed on the outer wall of the heat absorption cold head. A micro water pump is disposed at the connection point between the connecting water pipe and the heat absorption cold head. The water cooling component includes a cooling copper pipe and cooling fins. In this invention, the heat inside the control box is absorbed by the heat absorption cold head through the cooling fins, which heats the cooling water in the connecting water pipe. The micro water pump then pumps the cooling water from the connecting water pipe into the cooling copper pipe, transferring heat to the cooling fins, thus achieving water cooling of the control box. Finally, the cooling fan operates to expel the heat from the cooling fins through the dust filter, achieving heat dissipation of the control box.

[0005] While the aforementioned patent achieves water cooling of the control box, and then the cooling fan works to expel heat from the cooling fins through the dust filter, thus dissipating heat inside the control box, it does not reduce the vibration transmitted to the controller, which can easily lead to damage to electrical components due to excessive vibration.

[0006] Therefore, it is necessary to invent an intelligent automatic controller for washing machines to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0017] (III) Beneficial Effects

[0018] This utility model provides an intelligent automatic controller for washing machines, which has the following advantages:

[0019] 1. This intelligent washing machine automatic controller, through the setting of buffer components and support components, when the controller is subjected to vibration, the force generated by the vibration causes the circuit board to drive the support plate to shake. In turn, the connecting rod under the support plate rotates on the movable bolt, and then the other end of the connecting rod rotates on the support seat, pushing the support seat to slide on the support rod. This causes the two sets of support seats to press against the two sets of damping hydraulic rods in the middle. The damping hydraulic rods are compressed under force, and the limit ring on the telescopic end drives the buffer spring to compress. The buffer spring deforms under force and generates elastic force, thereby achieving the effect of buffering and shock absorption and maintaining stability. This reduces the vibration transmission to the controller, prevents damage to electrical components due to excessive vibration, and improves the safety of the intelligent washing machine automatic controller.

[0020] 2. This intelligent washing machine automatic controller, through the setting of the drying component, activates the exhaust fan when the inside of the controller is damp, drawing the humid air from inside the casing into the connecting pipe, and then through the connecting pipe to the inside of the fixed sleeve. The silica gel desiccant absorbs and filters the moisture in the air, and then the dry air is discharged into the casing, thereby achieving a circulating drying effect. This prevents the internal components of the controller from being corroded by moisture, affecting the normal operation of the controller, and improving the service life of the intelligent washing machine automatic controller.
