Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of mechanical technology, specifically to temperature and humidity sensors for washer-dryer combos. Background Technology

[0002] A washer-dryer combo is a new type of intelligent washing machine that adds a drying function to a fully automatic washing machine, integrating washing, spin-drying, and drying functions into one unit. The internal components of a washer-dryer combo mainly consist of temperature and humidity sensors. The temperature and humidity sensors mostly use integrated temperature and humidity probes as temperature measuring elements to collect temperature and humidity signals. After processing by circuits such as voltage regulation filtering, operational amplification, nonlinear correction, V / I conversion, constant current and reverse protection, the signals are converted into current or voltage signals that are linearly related to temperature and humidity and output.

[0003] Because washer-dryer combos generate significant temperature and humidity fluctuations during operation, sensors must be able to adapt to these drastic environmental changes to ensure their normal operation. Currently, sensor mounting components are generally made of rubber or plastic, which cannot cope with the expansion or contraction caused by temperature and humidity fluctuations. Consequently, the sensors may become loose due to environmental changes. At the same time, washer-dryer combos generate strong vibrations during operation, and the mounting components cannot guarantee that the sensors remain stable during vibrations, which can affect the operation of the sensors. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this application provides a temperature and humidity sensor for washer-dryer combos, which has advantages such as ensuring sensor stability and normal operation, and solves the problems in the background technology.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this application provides the following technical solution: a temperature and humidity sensor for a washer-dryer combo, comprising a mounting frame, a sensor body placed on the inner wall of the mounting frame, sensing ends mounted on the upper and lower surfaces of the sensor body, symmetrical threaded holes on the left and right sides of the mounting frame, bolts threaded into the interior of each threaded hole, two sets of positioning plates inside the mounting frame, bearings fixedly embedded on the opposite sides of the two sets of positioning plates, the inner rings of the two sets of bearings fixedly connected to the adjacent ends of the two sets of bolts, and two symmetrical L-shaped fixing plates fixedly connected to the upper and lower surfaces of the mounting frame, each L-shaped fixing plate having a fixing hole on its front side.

[0006] The above solution enables precise monitoring of the internal temperature and humidity of the washer-dryer combo. The sensor body can capture environmental changes in real time through the sensing end and transmit the data to the control unit. The combination of the positioning plate and bearings ensures the stability and accuracy of the sensor body within the mounting frame, avoiding measurement errors caused by vibration or movement. The tight fit between the bolts and bearings further enhances the fixing effect of the sensor body, allowing it to maintain good performance during long-term use. The fixing holes on the L-shaped fixing plate facilitate the installation of the sensor body, ensuring both ease and firmness of installation. This guarantees both the durability of the sensor body and the reliability of the measurement data.

[0007] Furthermore, a transparent glass is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mounting frame, and the transparent glass is located in front of the sensor body.

[0008] By using the above solution and incorporating transparent glass, it can be ensured that the sensor body is not affected by external light during the measurement process, thereby improving the accuracy and stability of the measurement.

[0009] Furthermore, a patch is affixed to the back of each L-shaped fixing plate.

[0010] The above method, by setting up adhesive dots, can achieve a fast and firm fixing effect, and the use of adhesive dots also greatly improves the efficiency of the assembly process.

[0011] Furthermore, a sealing plate is fixedly installed on the back of the mounting frame by screws, and the sealing plate is made of rubber.

[0012] The above solution, by setting a sealing plate, can effectively prevent the leakage of liquid or gas, thus ensuring the sealing performance of the equipment.

[0013] Furthermore, two rubber pads are fixedly connected to both the left and right sides of the mounting frame, and a washer is fitted on the outer surface of each bolt.

[0014] By using the above solution and by setting rubber pads and shims, the vibration and noise generated during equipment operation can be effectively reduced. At the same time, the rubber pads can also play a certain role in anti-slip and cushioning, protecting the equipment from damage.

[0015] Furthermore, the upper surface of the mounting frame is provided with a set of air inlets arranged at equal intervals, and the bottom surface of the mounting frame is provided with a set of air outlets arranged at equal intervals.

[0016] The above solution, by setting up air inlets and outlets, not only improves the efficiency of air circulation, but also helps to reduce the noise generated during equipment operation.

[0017] Furthermore, protective pads are fixedly connected to the sides of the two sets of positioning plates that are close to each other, and anti-slip protrusions are fixedly connected to the sides of the two sets of protective pads that are close to each other.

[0018] The above solution, by setting protective pads, can effectively prevent damage to the positioning plate caused by friction or collision during use. At the same time, the anti-slip protrusions increase the friction between the positioning plate and the contact surface, ensuring the stability and durability of the positioning plate in various working environments.

[0019] Furthermore, a set of symmetrical limiting blocks are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mounting frame, and the sides of the two sets of limiting blocks that are close to each other are in contact with the outer surface of the sensor body.

[0020] By using the above solution and setting limit blocks, the sensor body can be accurately positioned within the mounting frame, thereby improving the accuracy and repeatability of the measurement.

[0021] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of this application has the following beneficial effects:

[0022] This washer-dryer combo uses a temperature and humidity sensor to accurately monitor the internal temperature and humidity. The sensor itself can capture environmental changes in real time through its sensing end and transmit the data to the control unit. The combination of the positioning plate and bearings ensures the stability and accuracy of the sensor within the mounting frame, avoiding measurement errors caused by vibration or movement. The tight fit between the bolts and bearings further enhances the fixation of the sensor, ensuring good performance during long-term use. The mounting holes on the L-shaped mounting plate facilitate the installation of the sensor, ensuring both ease and stability, thus guaranteeing both the durability of the sensor and the reliability of the measurement data.

A sensor body 11 is placed on the inner wall of the mounting frame 1. Sensing terminals 18 are installed on the upper and lower surfaces of the sensor body 11. Symmetrical threaded holes 15 are provided on both the left and right sides of the mounting frame 1. Bolts 6 are threaded into the interior of each threaded hole 15. Two sets of positioning plates 10 are provided inside the mounting frame 1. Bearings 14 are fixedly embedded on the side of the two sets of positioning plates 10 that are far apart from each other. The inner rings of the two sets of bearings 14 are fixedly connected to the ends of the two sets of bolts 6 that are close to each other. Two symmetrical L-shaped fixing plates 3 are fixedly connected to the upper and lower surfaces of the mounting frame 1. Each L-shaped fixing plate 3 has a front opening. With fixing holes 4, accurate monitoring of the internal temperature and humidity of the washer-dryer combo can be achieved. The sensor body 11 can capture environmental changes in real time through the sensing end 18 and transmit the data to the control unit. The combination of the positioning plate 10 and the bearing 14 ensures the stability and accuracy of the sensor body 11 within the mounting frame 1, avoiding measurement errors caused by vibration or movement. The tight fit between the bolt 6 and the bearing 14 further enhances the fixing effect of the sensor body 11, enabling it to maintain good performance during long-term use. The fixing holes 4 on the L-shaped fixing plate 3 provide convenience for the installation of the sensor body 11, ensuring the ease and firmness of installation, thus guaranteeing both the durability of the sensor body 11 and the reliability of the measurement data.

[0031] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3A transparent glass 2 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mounting frame 1. The transparent glass 2 is located in front of the sensor body 11. By setting the transparent glass 2, it can be ensured that the sensor body 11 is not affected by external light during the measurement process, thereby improving the accuracy and stability of the measurement. A dotted film 8 is pasted on the back of each L-shaped fixing plate 3. By setting the dotted film 8, a fast and firm fixing effect can be achieved. At the same time, the use of the dotted film 8 also greatly improves the efficiency of the assembly process. A sealing plate 7 is fixedly installed on the back of the mounting frame 1 by screws. The sealing plate 7 is made of rubber. By setting the sealing plate 7, the leakage of liquid or gas can be effectively prevented, ensuring the sealing performance of the equipment. Two rubber pads 12 are fixedly connected to the left and right sides of the mounting frame 1. A gasket 13 is fitted on the outer surface of each bolt 6. By setting the rubber pads 12 and gaskets 13, the vibration and noise generated during the operation of the equipment can be effectively reduced. At the same time, the rubber pads 12 can also play a certain role in anti-slip and cushioning, protecting the equipment from damage.

[0032] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The upper surface of the mounting frame 1 has a set of equidistant air inlets 5, and the bottom surface of the mounting frame 1 has a set of equidistant air outlets 17. By setting the air inlets 5 and air outlets 17, not only is the efficiency of air circulation improved, but the noise generated during equipment operation is also reduced. Protective pads 16 are fixedly connected to the side of the two sets of positioning plates 10 that are close to each other, and anti-slip protrusions are fixedly connected to the side of the two sets of protective pads 16 that are close to each other. By setting the protective pads 16, damage to the positioning plates 10 due to friction or collision during use can be effectively prevented. At the same time, the anti-slip protrusions increase the friction between the positioning plates 10 and the contact surface, ensuring the stability and durability of the positioning plates 10 in various working environments. A set of symmetrical limiting blocks 9 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mounting frame 1. The side of the two sets of limiting blocks 9 that are close to each other is in contact with the outer surface of the sensor body 11. By setting the limiting blocks 9, the sensor body 11 can be accurately positioned within the mounting frame 1, thereby improving the accuracy and repeatability of the measurement.

[0033] In this embodiment, accurate monitoring of the internal temperature and humidity of the washer-dryer combo can be achieved. The sensor body 11 can capture environmental changes in real time through the sensing end 18 and transmit the data to the control unit. The combination of the positioning plate 10 and the bearing 14 ensures the stability and accuracy of the sensor body 11 within the mounting frame 1, avoiding measurement errors caused by vibration or movement. The tight fit between the bolt 6 and the bearing 14 further enhances the fixing effect of the sensor body 11, enabling it to maintain good performance during long-term use. The fixing holes 4 on the L-shaped fixing plate 3 provide convenience for the installation of the sensor body 11, ensuring the ease and firmness of installation, thus guaranteeing both the durability of the sensor body 11 and the reliability of the measurement data.

[0034] The working principle of the above embodiments is as follows:

[0035] When the washer-dryer combo is working, the sensor body 11 monitors the temperature and humidity of the internal environment in real time through its sensing end 18. The sensing end 18 converts the detected signal into an electrical signal, which is transmitted to the control unit through the circuit. The control unit analyzes and processes the signal according to the preset parameters and program to control the heating and ventilation system of the washer-dryer combo to ensure that the clothes are properly dried. At the same time, the positioning plate 10 and bearing 14 in the mounting frame 1 ensure that the sensor body 11 remains stable during the operation of the machine and avoids damage caused by vibration or impact. The fixing holes 4 on the L-shaped fixing plate 3 are used to firmly fix the sensor body 11 in the appropriate position of the washer-dryer combo to ensure its normal operation. This not only improves the performance and reliability of the washer-dryer combo, but also ensures the convenience of the user and the quality of clothing care.
