Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of clothes processing, and in particular to a clothes processing device. BACKGROUND

[0002] At present, consumers pay more and more attention to the improvement of life quality, and have new expectations for the utilization of home aesthetics and home space in addition to higher requirements for the cleaning experience of clothes processing devices, which requires clothes processing devices to meet the requirements of large washing capacity and ultra-thin design.

[0003] In the related art, a clothes processing device includes a cabinet, an outer drum located in an internal space of the cabinet, and an inner drum located in the outer drum and substantially in a circular shape. The size of the outer drum limits the size of the inner drum, and further limits the washing capacity of the clothes processing device. In the industry, in order to realize the large washing capacity of the clothes processing device, it is usually necessary to increase the size of the outer drum and the cabinet, which does not meet the ultra-thin requirement of the clothes processing device. If the size of the outer drum is increased without changing the size of the cabinet, the reserved gap between the outer drum and the cabinet will be reduced, which causes the outer drum to collide with the cabinet due to the vibration of the inner drum during the operation of the clothes processing device, resulting in noise of the clothes processing device or even damage to the clothes processing device. UTILITARIAN CONTENT

[0004] Embodiments of the present application disclose a clothes processing device, which can effectively improve the washing capacity and use reliability of the clothes processing device, and realize the ultra-thin design requirement of the clothes processing device.

[0005] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, some embodiments of the present application provide a clothes processing device, which comprises:

[0006] a cabinet;

[0007] an outer drum, which is arranged in the cabinet;

[0008] an inner drum, which is rotatably arranged in the outer drum;

[0009] a gap G between the outer circumferential surface of the outer drum and the inner surface of the cabinet;

[0010] the cabinet has a first avoiding part, the outer circumferential surface of the outer drum has a second avoiding part, the second avoiding part is arranged corresponding to the first avoiding part, and the second avoiding part is configured to form a space together with the first avoiding part for preventing the outer drum from colliding with the cabinet;

[0011] wherein the gap G is greater than or equal to 15 mm.

[0012] Therefore, by arranging the first avoiding part and the second avoiding part, the two parts jointly form a space for preventing the outer drum from colliding with the cabinet, the size of the outer drum can be increased as much as possible without changing the size of the cabinet, the size of the inner drum arranged in the outer drum can be increased accordingly, the internal space of the clothes treatment device is fully utilized, and the problem of collision between the outer drum and the cabinet during the operation of the clothes treatment device is effectively avoided due to the decrease of the reserved gap between the outer drum and the cabinet caused by the increase of the size of the outer drum, thereby effectively improving the washing capacity and use reliability of the clothes treatment device, and realizing the ultra-thin design requirement of the clothes treatment device.

[0013] By arranging the distance G to be greater than or equal to 15 mm, if the distance G is less than 15 mm, the outer drum will collide with and interfere with the side wall of the cabinet during vibration. By designing the movement track of the outer drum during vibration, the distance G is arranged to be greater than or equal to 15 mm, which can effectively avoid the problem of collision and interference between the outer drum and the cabinet during vibration.

[0014] In some embodiments of the present application, part of the inner side wall of the cabinet protrudes outward of the cabinet to form the first avoiding part, or,

[0015] Part of the inner side wall and the outer side wall of the cabinet protrude outward of the cabinet to form the first avoiding part.

[0016] By reducing the wall thickness of the cabinet to avoid the space of the first avoiding part, the use of raw materials is reduced, and the utilization rate of the internal space of the cabinet is improved. In addition, the first avoiding part is formed by the partial protrusion of the inner side wall of the cabinet outward of the cabinet, so that the external shape of the cabinet is basically unchanged, thereby ensuring that the structural strength of the cabinet is basically unchanged.

[0017] Since part of the inner side wall of the cabinet and part of the outer side wall of the cabinet protrude outward of the cabinet, such a design forms the first avoiding part by utilizing part of the external space, so that the overall wall thickness of the cabinet is unchanged, thereby changing the overall shape of the cabinet little, effectively ensuring the mechanical strength of the cabinet, and increasing the size of the outer drum as much as possible while the size of the inner drum arranged in the outer drum is increased accordingly, effectively avoiding the decrease of the reserved gap between the outer drum and the cabinet due to the increase of the size of the outer drum, thereby effectively improving the washing capacity and use reliability of the clothes treatment device, and realizing the ultra-thin design requirement of the clothes treatment device.

[0018] In some embodiments of the present application, the first avoiding part includes at least one of a plane, an inclined surface, and a curved surface;

[0019] The second avoiding part comprises at least one of a plane and an arc surface.

[0020] The first avoiding part and the second avoiding part are arranged to jointly form a space for preventing the outer drum from colliding with the cabinet, effectively avoiding the collision between the outer drum and the cabinet during operation of the clothes treatment device, and thus improving the use reliability of the clothes treatment device.

[0021] In some embodiments of the present application, the outer drum is provided with the second avoiding part on both opposite sides in the first direction;

[0022] The first direction intersects with the depth direction of the outer drum.

[0023] In this way, the overall size of the outer drum can be further increased, and by arranging the second avoiding part on both opposite sides of the outer drum in the first direction, the reserved gap between the cabinet and the outer drum is reserved, so that the size of the outer drum can be increased without changing the size of the cabinet, and the size of the inner drum arranged in the outer drum can be correspondingly increased, while the reserved gap between the outer drum and the cabinet is ensured by arranging the first avoiding part and the second avoiding part, thereby avoiding the collision between the outer drum and the cabinet. Thus, the washing capacity and use reliability of the clothes treatment device are improved, and the ultra-thin design requirement of the clothes treatment device is met.

[0024] In some embodiments of the present application, the second avoiding part extends from the front end of the outer drum to the rear end of the outer drum in the depth direction of the outer drum.

[0025] Since the outer drum has a certain depth, and the vibration caused by the rotation of the inner drum will vibrate the entire outer drum, the second avoiding part extends from the front end of the outer drum to the rear end of the outer drum, which can ensure that a distance is always reserved between the outer drum and the cabinet in the depth direction of the outer drum, effectively avoiding the collision between the outer drum and the cabinet, thereby improving the use reliability of the clothes treatment device.

[0026] In some embodiments of the present application, the outer drum comprises:

[0027] The rear outer drum is provided with a first outer extension part on the outer circumferential surface thereof, the first outer extension part is arranged around the outer circumferential surface of the rear outer drum, and the first outer extension part is arranged close to the open end of the rear outer drum;

[0028] The front outer drum is provided with a second outer extension part on the outer circumferential surface thereof, the second outer extension part is arranged around the outer circumferential surface of the front outer drum, and the second outer extension part is arranged corresponding to the first outer extension part;

[0029] The second extension part is configured to be connected with the first extension part, so that the front outer barrel is connected with the rear outer barrel to form a water containing cavity, and the inner barrel is rotatably arranged in the water containing cavity.

[0030] Since the outer barrel comprises the rear outer barrel and the front outer barrel, and the rear outer barrel and the front outer barrel are connected by screws, a certain installation position is required for connecting the rear outer barrel and the front outer barrel, and the first extension part and the second extension part are arranged to enable the front outer barrel to be connected with the rear outer barrel correspondingly.

[0031] Specifically, by arranging a threaded hole at a position corresponding to the first extension part and the second extension part, the front outer barrel and the rear outer barrel are threadedly fastened by bolts or studs, thereby improving the overall sealing performance and stability of the outer barrel. Since the first extension part and the second extension part are arranged around the outer circumferential surface of the rear outer barrel and the outer circumferential surface of the front outer barrel respectively, and the first extension part and / or the second extension part is provided with the second avoiding part, the overall distance between the outer barrel and the cabinet along the depth direction of the outer barrel can be ensured, and the collision between the outer barrel and the cabinet can be effectively avoided, thereby improving the use reliability of the clothes treatment device.

[0032] In some embodiments of the present application, the outer barrel further comprises:

[0033] A sealing member is arranged at the connection between the first extension part and the second extension part to seal the front outer barrel and the rear outer barrel.

[0034] Since the rear outer barrel and the front outer barrel are arranged in a split molding manner, and the sealing member is arranged at the connection between the first extension part and the second extension part, the overall sealing performance of the outer barrel can be effectively improved, and the leakage and overflow of washing water can be prevented, thereby effectively improving the use reliability of the clothes treatment device.

[0035] In some embodiments of the present application, the sealing member comprises:

[0036] A sealing ring;

[0037] The width of the sealing ring in the radial direction of the sealing ring is 5mm-6mm;

[0038] And / or,

[0039] The thickness of the sealing ring in the depth direction of the outer barrel is 5mm-6mm.

[0040] In this way, the overall sealing performance of the sealing ring to the outer barrel can be effectively improved, the washing water in the inner barrel is not easy to leak and overflow when the outer barrel vibrates, and the size of the sealing ring does not occupy too much internal space, thereby effectively improving the use reliability and space utilization of the clothes treatment device.

[0041] In some embodiments of the present application, the second avoiding part extends from the opening end of the rear outer cylinder to the rear end of the rear outer cylinder along the depth direction of the outer cylinder.

[0042] Therefore, since the outer cylinder has a certain depth and the vibration caused by the rotation of the inner cylinder can vibrate the entire outer cylinder, the second avoiding part extending from the opening end of the rear outer cylinder to the rear end of the rear outer cylinder can ensure that there is always a gap between the rear outer cylinder and the cabinet along the depth direction of the outer cylinder, avoiding the collision between the outer cylinder and the cabinet, thereby improving the use reliability of the clothes treatment device.

[0043] In some embodiments of the present application, the outer cylinder comprises:

[0044] a front end face having a clothes feeding port;

[0045] a rear end face opposite to the front end face, the rear end face being provided with an air return port;

[0046] The clothes treatment device further comprises:

[0047] a drying air duct located outside the outer cylinder, one end of the drying air duct being in communication with the air return port, and the other end being in communication with the inner cylinder;

[0048] a condensing disc provided on the rear end face, the condensing disc covering the air return port.

[0049] Therefore, the drying air duct is used to communicate the outer cylinder, so that the air circulation can be formed among the inner cylinder, the outer cylinder and the drying air duct. Specifically, the air in the washing cavity of the inner cylinder can enter the inside of the outer cylinder, enter the drying air duct through the air return port on the rear end face of the outer cylinder, and then return to the washing cavity, thereby forming the air circulation flow and realizing the drying function of the clothes treatment device.

[0050] Compared with the prior art, the present application has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0051] This application provides a garment processing device, including a housing, an outer drum, and an inner drum. The outer drum is disposed within the housing, and the inner drum is rotatably disposed within the outer drum. A gap exists between the outer circumferential surface of the outer drum and the inner surface of the housing. The housing has a first clearance portion, and the outer circumferential surface of the outer drum has a second clearance portion corresponding to the first clearance portion. The first and second clearance portions cooperate to prevent the outer drum from colliding with the housing. Thus, by providing the first and second clearance portions, the size of the outer drum can be maximized without changing the size of the housing, allowing for a corresponding increase in the size of the inner drum within the outer drum. This effectively avoids the problem of the outer drum colliding with the housing during operation due to a reduction in the reserved gap between the outer drum and the housing caused by the increased size of the outer drum. This effectively improves the washing capacity and reliability of the garment processing device and meets the ultra-thin design requirements of the garment processing device.

[0072] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0073] In the present application, the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "back", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer" and the like indicate the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings. These terms are mainly used to better describe the present application and its embodiments, and are not intended to limit the indicated devices, elements or components to have a specific orientation, or to be constructed and operated in a specific orientation.

[0074] In addition, in addition to indicating the orientation or positional relationship, the above-mentioned partial terms can also be used to indicate other meanings, for example, the term "upper" can also be used to indicate a certain dependent relationship or connection relationship in some cases. For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of these terms in the present application can be understood according to the specific situation.

[0075] In addition, the terms "mount", "set", "provided with", "connected", "connected" should be broadly understood. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or a monolithic structure; it can be a mechanical connection, or an electrical connection; it can be directly connected, or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or internal communication between two devices, elements or components. For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to the specific situation.

[0076] In addition, the terms "first", "second" and the like are mainly used to distinguish different devices, elements or components (the specific type and structure can be the same or different), and are not intended to indicate or imply the relative importance and quantity of the indicated devices, elements or components. Unless otherwise stated, the meaning of "multiple" is two or more.

[0077] At present, consumers pay more and more attention to the improvement of life quality, not only put forward higher standard to the cleaning experience of clothes processing equipment, but also put new expectation to the home decoration aesthetics and space efficient use. This prompts the clothes processing device to have the dual characteristics of large washing capacity and ultra-thin design.

[0078] In the traditional technical framework, the clothes processing device is composed of a box body, an outer drum arranged inside the box body, and a generally circular inner drum nested inside the outer drum. The size of the outer drum is a key factor restricting the size of the inner drum, and thus limiting the washing capacity. In order to pursue larger washing capacity, the industry usually adopts the method of expanding the size of the outer drum and the box body, but this is obviously contrary to the pursuit of ultra-thin design by consumers. On the other hand, if you try to increase the outer drum while keeping the size of the box body unchanged, although it seems feasible, it will greatly reduce the reserved space between the outer drum and the box body, and thus increase the risk of collision between the outer drum and the box body due to the vibration of the inner drum during equipment operation. Not only will it cause shaking and noise problems, but it may also cause damage to the clothes processing device in severe cases.

[0079] Therefore, the laundry treatment device provided in the present application can effectively improve the washing capacity and use reliability of the laundry treatment device without changing the size of the cabinet, and achieve the ultra-thin design requirement of the laundry treatment device.

[0080] The technical solutions will be further described below with reference to the embodiments and drawings.

[0085] Please refer to Figure 2Optionally, the cabinet 1 can serve as an external structure of the laundry treatment apparatus 100, and the cabinet 1 includes a front cover 14, a rear cover 13, a top cover 15, a bottom cover (not shown), and two side walls 12, which together enclose an internal space la of the cabinet 1 for accommodating the outer tub 2, the inner tub 3, and the like.

[0086] It can be understood that the bottom of the cabinet 1 to the top of the cabinet 1 is the height direction F4 of the cabinet 1, and the cabinet 1 also has a width direction F2 and a depth direction F3. Among them, one side end of the cabinet 1 to the other side end of the cabinet 1 is the width direction F2 of the cabinet 1, and the front side of the cabinet 1 is the side of the cabinet 1 facing the user, and any two of the width direction F2, the depth direction F3 and the height direction F4 of the cabinet 1 are perpendicular to each other.

[0088] In some embodiments, the bottom of the cabinet 1 is provided with a base, and the base supports the cabinet 1. The base is provided with a downwardly protruding ground contact such as a foot to allow the base as a whole to have a certain gap from the ground.

[0089] Please refer to Figures 2 to 4 , wherein, Figure 4 is Figure 3 the sectional view of A-A. The laundry treatment apparatus 100 further includes an outer tub 2 disposed in the cabinet 1. The outer tub 2 has a water storage cavity 24 for storing washing water, i.e., the water storage cavity 24 of the outer tub 2 is used to store washing water. The outer tub 2 is configured as a barrel for containing washing water, i.e., the water storage cavity 24 of the outer tub 2 is used to store washing water.

[0090] The laundry treatment apparatus 100 further includes an inner tub 3 rotatably disposed in the outer tub 2. The inner tub 3 has a washing cavity 31 in communication with the water storage cavity 24. Specifically, a hole is formed on the outer wall of the inner tub 3, and water in the outer tub 2 can enter the inner tub 3 through the hole to clean the laundry in the inner tub 3.

[0091] Optionally, the inner tub 3 can be rotatably disposed in the water storage cavity 24 by, for example, a drive motor, so as to rotate at high speed under the drive of the drive motor to beat the laundry and achieve cleaning or spin-drying of the laundry.

[0092] Please refer to Figures 2 to 3In some embodiments, as known from the foregoing, the clothes treatment apparatus 100 can be a washer-dryer, based on which the outer drum 2 comprises a front end face 26 having a clothes feeding opening 261, the front end face 26 being a side face close to the user, and the clothes feeding opening 261 being configured to allow the user to feed clothes.

[0093] In some embodiments, the outer drum 2 further comprises a rear end face 27 opposite to the front end face 26, and the rear end face 27 is provided with an air return opening 271; the clothes treatment apparatus 100 further comprises a drying air duct 4, the drying air duct 4 being located outside the outer drum 2, one end of the drying air duct 4 being in communication with the air return opening 271, and the other end of the drying air duct 4 being in communication with the inner drum 3. The drying air duct 4 is configured to communicate the outer drum 2, so that the inner drum 3, the outer drum 2 and the drying air duct 4 can form an air circulation. Specifically, the air in the washing cavity 31 of the inner drum 3 can enter the inside of the outer drum, pass through the air return opening 271 on the rear end face 27 of the outer drum, enter the drying air duct 4, and then return to the washing cavity 31, so as to form an air circulation flow, and realize the drying function of the clothes treatment apparatus 100.

The condensing disc 5 is configured to serve as a condenser, and the condensing disc 5 is configured to condense the hot and humid air flowing through the drying air duct 4, so as to cool and dehumidify the hot and humid air flowing therethrough.

[0095] It can be understood that the shape of the condensing disc 5 can be consistent with the shape and curvature of the air return opening 271, so as not to occupy too much internal space la.

[0096] Therefore, the clothes treatment apparatus 100 provided by the embodiments of the present application can realize the functions of a washer-dryer, which can both clean and dry clothes, and does not need to manually take out the clothes multiple times, thereby effectively improving the user experience.

[0097] Please refer to Figures 5 to 6 together, Figure 5 is a schematic view of the internal structure of the clothes treatment apparatus provided by the embodiments of the present application, Figure 6 is Figure 5The local enlarged view at B. In some embodiments, the outer circumferential surface of the outer drum 2 has a spacing G to the inner surface of the cabinet 1; wherein the spacing G is ≥ 15mm. Since the inner drum 3 rotates inside the outer drum 2 during the operation of the clothes treatment device 100, the rotation action of the inner drum 3 causes the vibration and noise of the clothes treatment device 100. Therefore, the spacing G between the outer circumferential surface of the outer drum 2 and the inner surface of the cabinet 1 can avoid the outer drum 2 from colliding with or interfering with the inner surface of the cabinet 1 during the vibration. By setting the spacing G to be ≥ 15mm, if the spacing G < 15mm, the outer drum 2 will collide with or interfere with the cabinet 1 during the vibration. By designing the movement track of the outer drum 2 during the vibration, the spacing G is set to be ≥ 15mm, which can effectively avoid the collision or interference between the outer drum 2 and the cabinet 1 during the vibration.

[0098] Optionally, the cabinet 1 has a first avoiding portion 11, and the outer circumferential surface of the outer drum 2 has a second avoiding portion 21, the second avoiding portion 21 is correspondingly arranged with the first avoiding portion 11, and the second avoiding portion 21 is configured to form a space together with the first avoiding portion 11 for preventing the outer drum 2 from colliding with the cabinet 1. Specifically, the space for preventing the outer drum 2 from colliding with the cabinet 1 is the spacing G between the outer circumferential surface of the outer drum 2 and the inner surface of the cabinet 1.

[0099] By setting the first avoiding portion 11 and the second avoiding portion 21 to form the space for preventing the outer drum 2 from colliding with the cabinet 1, the size of the outer drum 2 can be increased as much as possible without changing the size of the cabinet 1, so that the size of the inner drum 3 arranged in the outer drum 2 can be increased correspondingly, and the problem of the collision between the outer drum 2 and the cabinet 1 during the operation of the clothes treatment device 100 due to the decrease of the reserved gap between the outer drum 2 and the cabinet 1 caused by the increase of the size of the outer drum 2 can be effectively avoided, thereby effectively improving the washing capacity and use reliability of the clothes treatment device 100, and realizing the ultra-thin design requirement of the clothes treatment device 100.

[0100] Please refer to Figure 6 In some embodiments, the cabinet 1 has a first avoiding portion 11 protruding towards the outside of the cabinet 1, and the outer circumferential surface of the outer drum 2 has a second avoiding portion 21 recessed towards the inside of the outer drum 2, and the second avoiding portion 21 is correspondingly arranged with the first avoiding portion 11.

[0101] Similarly, by setting the first avoiding part 11 protruding towards the outside of the cabinet 1 on the cabinet 1, and the second avoiding part 21 recessed towards the inside of the outer drum 2 on the outer periphery of the outer drum 2, the size of the outer drum 2 can be increased as much as possible without changing the size of the cabinet 1, so that the size of the inner drum 3 provided in the outer drum 2 can be increased accordingly, while effectively avoiding the problem of the outer drum 2 and the cabinet 1 colliding due to the decrease of the reserved gap between the outer drum 2 and the cabinet 1 caused by the increase of the size of the outer drum 2, so as to effectively improve the washing capacity and use reliability of the clothes treatment device 100, and realize the ultra-thin design requirement of the clothes treatment device 100.

[0102] It can be understood that, in order to prevent the outer drum 2 from colliding with the cabinet 1 when vibrating, there is a reserved gap between the outer drum 2 and the cabinet 1, which is the distance G between the outer periphery of the outer drum 2 and the inner surface of the cabinet 1, that is, the gap in which the outer drum 2 can not collide with and interfere with the cabinet 1 under vibration.

[0103] The first avoiding part 11 and the second avoiding part 21 will be described in detail below.

[0104] Please refer to Figures 5 to 6 In some embodiments, part of the inner side wall 121 of the cabinet 1 protrudes towards the outside of the cabinet 1 to form the first avoiding part 11, so that the cabinet 1 avoids the space of the first avoiding part 11 by reducing the wall thickness of the cabinet 1, thereby reducing the use of raw materials and improving the utilization rate of the inner space 1a of the cabinet 1. In addition, the first avoiding part 11 is formed by the partial protrusion of the inner side wall 121 towards the outside of the cabinet 1, so that the outer shape of the cabinet 1 is basically unchanged by setting the first avoiding part 11 on the cabinet 1, thereby ensuring that the structural strength of the cabinet 1 is basically unchanged.

[0105] Optionally, the inner side wall 121 of the cabinet 1 and the outer side wall 122 of the cabinet 1 are partially protruded towards the outside of the cabinet 1 to form the first avoiding part 11. Since the inner side wall 121 of the cabinet 1 and the inner side wall 122 of the cabinet 1 are partially protruded towards the outside of the cabinet 1, such design is to form the first avoiding part 11 by utilizing part of the external space, so that the overall shape of the cabinet 1 changes little, the overall wall thickness of the cabinet 1 does not change, the mechanical strength of the cabinet 1 can be effectively guaranteed, and the overall size of the cabinet 1 is not changed or is changed slightly. Under the condition that the size of the outer cylinder 2 is increased as much as possible, the size of the inner cylinder 3 arranged in the outer cylinder 2 can be correspondingly increased, while effectively avoiding the problem that the reserved gap between the outer cylinder 2 and the cabinet 1 is reduced due to the increase of the size of the outer cylinder 2, so that the collision between the outer cylinder 2 and the cabinet 1 occurs during the operation of the clothes processing device 100. Therefore, the washing capacity and the use reliability of the clothes processing device 100 are effectively improved, and the ultra-thin design requirement of the clothes processing device 100 is realized.

[0106] Specifically, the forming mode of the side wall 12 of the cabinet 1 can adopt sheet metal sheet pressing forming or plastic material injection molding. The above forming modes can all integrally form the first avoiding part 11 on the side wall 12 of the cabinet 1, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited thereto.

[0107] In some embodiments, the wall thickness of the cabinet 1 at the first avoiding part 11 is consistent with the wall thickness of the cabinet 1 at other positions. In this way, during the manufacturing process of the clothes processing device 100, the first avoiding part 11 can be directly prepared in the cabinet 1 shaping step, thereby effectively reducing the process steps of the clothes processing device 100 and improving the preparation efficiency of the clothes processing device 100.

[0108] Optionally, the shape of the first avoiding part 11 can include but is not limited to a circle, a rectangle, an ellipse, or an arc-angled rectangle, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited thereto.

[0109] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, the side wall 12 of the cabinet 1 further comprises a reinforcing part 111, which is arranged on both sides of the first avoiding part 11 in the height direction F4, and the outer side wall 122 and the inner side wall 121 are protruded towards the inside of the cabinet 1 to form the reinforcing part 111. Since the first avoiding part 11 is protruded towards the outside of the cabinet 1, the overall center of gravity of the cabinet 1 can be adjusted by arranging the reinforcing part 111, the stress state of the side wall 12 of the cabinet 1 is changed, the deformation of the side wall 12 is prevented, and the overall stability and mechanical strength of the cabinet 1 are improved.

[0110] Specifically, the reinforcing part 111 can be a reinforcing rib, a reinforcing plate, a reinforcing boss, or an arc-shaped structure extending in the depth direction F3, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited thereto.

[0111] Please refer to Figures 5 to 6 In some embodiments, the first avoiding part 11 comprises at least one of a plane, an inclined surface, and an arc surface.

[0112] For example, the first avoiding part 11 can comprise, but is not limited to, a plane, an inclined surface, or an arc surface. Of course, as other examples, the first avoiding part 11 can also be a combination of a plane and an inclined surface, a combination of an inclined surface and an arc surface, or a structure of a plane and an arc surface. The embodiments of the present application do not make specific limitations thereon, as long as the first avoiding part 11 can form a space together with the second avoiding part 21 for preventing the outer cylinder 2 from colliding with the box body 1.

[0113] Please refer to Figure 7 , Figure 7 Figures (a) to (k) in the drawings show side views of various embodiments of the first avoiding part 11. The dashed line represents the second avoiding part 21 of the outer cylinder 2, and the solid line represents the first avoiding part 11 of the box body 1.

[0114] For example, as shown in Figure 7 (a), the first avoiding part 11 comprises a single arc surface.

[0115] For another example, as shown in Figure 7 (b), the first avoiding part 11 comprises a combination of an arc surface and a plane.

[0119] For yet another example, as shown in Figure 7 (f), the first avoiding part 11 comprises a combination of an inclined surface, an arc surface, and a plane.

[0120] For yet another example, as shown in Figure 7 (g), the first avoiding part 11 comprises a combination of multiple inclined surfaces and multiple planes.

[0121] For yet another example, as shown in Figure 7 (h), the first avoiding part 11 comprises a combination of multiple inclined surfaces, multiple planes, and an arc surface.

[0122] For yet another example, as shown in Figure 7 (i) to Figure 7(k)As shown, the first avoiding part 11 includes a combination of multiple inclined surfaces, multiple planes and multiple arc surfaces.

[0123] The first avoiding part 11 can be arranged in the above manner to form a space together with the second avoiding part 21 for preventing the outer drum 2 from colliding with the cabinet 1, effectively avoiding the collision between the outer drum 2 and the cabinet 1 during the operation of the clothes treatment device 100, thereby improving the use reliability of the clothes treatment device 100.

[0124] It can be understood that, correspondingly, the second avoiding part 21 includes at least one of a plane and an arc surface. For example, the second avoiding part 21 can include but is not limited to a plane, an arc surface, or a combination of a plane and an arc surface, and the embodiments of the present application do not make specific limitations thereon, as long as the second avoiding part 21 can form a space together with the first avoiding part 11 for preventing the outer drum 2 from colliding with the cabinet 1.

[0125] Specifically, the outer drum 2 can also be formed by sheet metal pressing or plastic injection molding, and the above forming methods can be used to integrally form the second avoiding part 21 on the outer drum 2, and the embodiments of the present application do not make specific limitations thereon. The second avoiding part 21 can also be formed by cutting, stamping, casting, injection molding or extrusion forming process, and the embodiments of the present application do not make specific limitations thereon.

[0126] The first avoiding part 11 and the second avoiding part 21 are arranged in this way to form a space together for preventing the outer drum 2 from colliding with the cabinet 1, effectively avoiding the collision between the outer drum 2 and the cabinet 1 during the operation of the clothes treatment device 100, thereby improving the use reliability of the clothes treatment device 100.

[0127] Please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 In some embodiments, the outer drum 2 is provided with the second avoiding part 21 on both opposite sides in the first direction F1. The first direction F1 intersects the depth direction F3 of the outer drum 2. In this way, the overall size of the outer drum 2 can be further increased, and by arranging the second avoiding part 21 on both opposite sides of the outer drum 2 in the first direction F1, the reserved gap between the cabinet 1 and the outer drum 2 is reserved, so that the size of the outer drum 2 can be increased without changing the size of the cabinet 1, and the size of the inner drum 3 arranged in the outer drum 2 can also be increased, while the reserved gap between the outer drum 2 and the cabinet 1 is ensured by arranging the first avoiding part 11 and the second avoiding part 21 on both sides, thereby avoiding the collision between the outer drum 2 and the cabinet 1. Therefore, the washing capacity and use reliability of the clothes treatment device 100 are improved, and the ultra-thin design requirement of the clothes treatment device 100 is met.

[0128] It can be understood that the first direction F1 can be the height direction F4 of the cabinet 1 or the width direction F2 of the cabinet 1, and the present application does not limit this.

[0129] Specifically, when the first direction F1 is the width direction F2 of the cabinet 1, the distance between the position of the outer cylinder 2 along the first direction F1 with the largest width and the inner surface of the cabinet 1 is the minimum distance between the outer cylinder 2 and the cabinet 1, which is greater than or equal to 15 mm, thereby avoiding the collision between the outer cylinder 2 and the cabinet 1 during vibration and meeting the ultra-thin design requirement of the clothes processing device.

[0130] Please refer to Figures 8 to 10 , wherein, Figure 8 is Figure 4 is a sectional view of C-C in Figure 9 is an exploded view of the rear outer cylinder and the front outer cylinder provided by the embodiments of the present application, Figure 10 is Figure 9 is a local enlarged view of D in. In some embodiments, along the depth direction F3 of the outer cylinder 2, the second avoiding part 21 extends from the front end of the outer cylinder 2 to the rear end of the outer cylinder 2. In this way, since the outer cylinder 2 has a certain depth and the vibration caused by the rotation of the inner cylinder 3 will make the entire outer cylinder 2 vibrate, the second avoiding part 21 extending from the front end of the outer cylinder 2 to the rear end of the outer cylinder 2 can ensure that the distance between the outer cylinder 2 and the cabinet 1 along the depth direction F3 of the outer cylinder 2 is always reserved, effectively avoiding the collision between the outer cylinder 2 and the cabinet 1, thereby improving the use reliability of the clothes processing device 100.

[0131] Please refer to Figures 8 to 10 , in some embodiments, the outer cylinder 2 includes a rear outer cylinder 22 and a front outer cylinder 23, the outer peripheral surface of the rear outer cylinder 22 is provided with a first outer extension part 221, the first outer extension part 221 is arranged around the outer peripheral surface of the rear outer cylinder 22, and the first outer extension part 221 is arranged close to the opening end 222 of the rear outer cylinder 22; the outer peripheral surface of the front outer cylinder 23 is provided with a second outer extension part 231, the second outer extension part 231 is arranged around the outer peripheral surface of the front outer cylinder 23, and the second outer extension part 231 is arranged corresponding to the first outer extension part 221.

[0132] Since the outer cylinder 2 includes the rear outer cylinder 22 and the front outer cylinder 23, and the rear outer cylinder 22 and the front outer cylinder 23 are connected through screws, a certain mounting position is required for connecting the rear outer cylinder 22 and the front outer cylinder 23, and the first outer extension part 221 and the second outer extension part 231 are arranged to enable the front outer cylinder 23 to be connected corresponding to the rear outer cylinder 22.

[0133] In some embodiments, the second extension part 231 is configured to be connected with the first extension part 221 to connect the front outer cylinder 23 with the rear outer cylinder 22 to form the water storage cavity 24, and the inner cylinder 3 is rotatably arranged in the water storage cavity 24. The first extension part 221 and / or the second extension part 231 is provided with the second avoiding part 21. Specifically, by arranging threaded holes at corresponding positions of the first extension part 221 and the second extension part 231, the front outer cylinder 23 and the rear outer cylinder 22 are threadedly fastened by bolts or studs, thereby improving the overall sealing performance and stability of the outer cylinder 2. Since the first extension part 221 and the second extension part 231 are respectively arranged around the outer circumferential surface of the rear outer cylinder 22 and the outer circumferential surface of the front outer cylinder 23, and the first extension part 221 and / or the second extension part 231 is provided with the second avoiding part 21, the overall distance between the outer cylinder 2 and the cabinet 1 along the depth direction F3 of the outer cylinder 2 can be ensured, and the collision between the outer cylinder 2 and the cabinet 1 is effectively avoided, thereby improving the use reliability of the clothes treatment apparatus 100.

[0134] Referring to Figure 11 wherein, Figure 11 is Figure 8 a local enlarged view of E in FIG. 11. In some embodiments, the outer cylinder 2 further includes a sealing member 25 configured to be arranged at the connection position of the first extension part 221 and the second extension part 231 to seal the front outer cylinder 23 and the rear outer cylinder 22. Since the rear outer cylinder 22 and the front outer cylinder 23 are arranged in a split molding manner, arranging the sealing member 25 at the connection position of the first extension part 221 and the second extension part 231 can effectively improve the overall sealing performance of the outer cylinder 2, prevent the leakage and overflow of washing water, and thereby effectively improve the use reliability of the clothes treatment apparatus 100.

[0135] In some embodiments, the sealing member 25 includes a sealing ring for sealing the connection position between the front outer cylinder 23 and the rear outer cylinder 22. It can be understood that the sealing member 25 can also include sealing cotton, a sealing plate, etc., which are not specifically limited in the embodiments of the present application and can be arranged according to actual needs.

[0136] In some embodiments, the width D of the sealing ring along the radial direction F5 is 5mm-6mm. For example, the width D of the sealing ring along the radial direction F5 can include, but is not limited to, 5.0mm-5.2mm, 5.2mm-5.4mm, 5.4mm-5.6mm, 5.6mm-5.8mm, 5.8mm-6.0mm, etc. For example, the width of the sealing ring along the radial direction F5 can include, but is not limited to, 5.00mm, 5.05mm, 5.10mm, 5.15mm, 5.20mm, 5.25mm, 5.30mm, 5.35mm, 5.40mm, 5.45mm, 5.50mm, 5.55mm, 5.60mm, 5.65mm, 5.70mm, 5.75mm, 5.80mm, 5.85mm, 5.90mm, 5.95mm, 6.00mm, etc., which are not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0137] In this way, the overall sealing performance of the sealing ring to the outer cylinder 2 can be effectively improved, and the washing water in the outer cylinder 2 is not easy to leak or overflow when the outer cylinder 2 vibrates, and the size of the sealing ring does not occupy too much internal space la, thereby effectively improving the use reliability and space utilization of the clothes treatment device 100.

[0138] When the width D of the sealing ring along the radial direction F5 is less than 5mm, the sealing effect of the sealing ring to the connection between the first extension part 221 and the second extension part 231 is poor, and it is difficult to effectively seal the outer cylinder 2; when the width D of the sealing ring along the radial direction F5 is greater than 6mm, the size of the sealing ring is large, and the required accommodation position of the connection between the first extension part 221 and the second extension part 231 needs to be increased, resulting in a decrease in the space utilization of the cabinet 1, thereby reducing the washing capacity of the clothes treatment device 100.

[0139] In some embodiments, the thickness H of the sealing ring along the depth direction F3 of the outer cylinder 2 is 5mm-6mm. For example, the thickness H of the sealing ring along the depth direction F3 of the outer cylinder 2 can include, but is not limited to, 5.0mm-5.2mm, 5.2mm-5.4mm, 5.4mm-5.6mm, 5.6mm-5.8mm, 5.8mm-6.0mm, etc. For example, the thickness of the sealing ring along the depth direction F3 of the outer cylinder 2 can include, but is not limited to, 5.00mm, 5.05mm, 5.10mm, 5.15mm, 5.20mm, 5.25mm, 5.30mm, 5.35mm, 5.40mm, 5.45mm, 5.50mm, 5.55mm, 5.60mm, 5.65mm, 5.70mm, 5.75mm, 5.80mm, 5.85mm, 5.90mm, 5.95mm, 6.00mm, etc., which are not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0140] In this way, the overall sealing performance of the sealing ring to the outer cylinder 2 can be effectively improved, and the washing water inside the outer cylinder 2 is less likely to leak or overflow when the outer cylinder 2 vibrates, and the size of the sealing ring does not occupy too much internal space la, thereby effectively improving the use reliability and space utilization of the clothes treatment device 100.

[0141] When the thickness H of the sealing ring along the depth direction F3 of the outer cylinder 2 is less than 5mm, the mechanical strength of the sealing ring is small and is easy to break, so that the sealing effect at the connection between the first extension part 221 and the second extension part 231 is poor, and the outer cylinder 2 is difficult to be effectively sealed; when the thickness H of the sealing ring along the depth direction F3 of the outer cylinder 2 is greater than 6mm, the size of the sealing ring is large, which will cause the connection at the connection between the first extension part 221 and the second extension part 231 to be extruded by the sealing ring, resulting in a decrease in the connection stability of the front outer cylinder 23 and the rear outer cylinder 22.

[0142] Please refer to Figures 12 to 13 wherein, Figure 12 is a structural schematic diagram of the outer cylinder provided by the embodiment of the present application, Figure 13 is Figure 12 is a local enlarged view at F. In some embodiments, the second avoiding part 21 extends from the opening end 222 of the rear outer cylinder 22 to the rear end of the rear outer cylinder 22 along the depth direction F3 of the outer cylinder 2. In this way, since the outer cylinder 2 has a certain depth, and the vibration caused by the rotation of the inner cylinder 3 will make the entire outer cylinder 2 vibrate, therefore, the second avoiding part 21 extending from the front end of the rear outer cylinder 22 to the rear end of the rear outer cylinder 22 can ensure that there is always a gap between the rear outer cylinder 22 and the cabinet 1 along the depth direction F3 of the outer cylinder 2, avoiding the collision between the outer cylinder 2 and the cabinet 1, thereby improving the use reliability of the clothes treatment device 100.

[0143] In some embodiments, a reinforcing rib 223 is arranged on the outer circumferential surface of the rear outer cylinder 22 corresponding to the second avoiding part 21, and the reinforcing rib 223 is arranged close to the first extension part 221. Since the position of the rear outer cylinder 22 corresponding to the second avoiding part 21 is closest to the side wall 12 of the cabinet 1, and the possibility of collision with the cabinet 1 is the highest at this position, the reinforcing rib 223 can effectively improve the mechanical strength of the rear outer cylinder 22, thereby improving the use reliability of the clothes treatment device 100.

[0144] Specifically, the reinforcing rib 223 is arranged in a mesh shape, which is formed by a plurality of strip-shaped reinforcing ribs parallel to the axial direction of the rear outer cylinder 22 and a plurality of strip-shaped reinforcing ribs parallel to the circumferential direction of the rear outer cylinder 22. In this way, the wall thickness of the outer cylinder 2 can be thinned, which not only saves the use of raw materials, but also improves the overall structural strength of the outer cylinder 2.

[0145] Finally, it should be noted that: the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application, but not to limit them; although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that: it can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments, or make equivalent replacement for part or all of the technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application.
