[0043] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 The embodiments of the present application provide a clothes processing device 1, which comprises a first clothes processing device 10 and a second clothes processing device 20. The first clothes processing device 10 can be a washing machine, and the second clothes processing device 20 can be a drying machine. The drying machine is stacked on the top of the washing machine.
[0044] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3The first laundry treatment device 10 includes a first cabinet 120 and a top cover 110 provided at a top of the first cabinet 120. The first cabinet 120 is internally provided with a drum assembly (not shown in the drawings), and the second laundry treatment device 20 includes a base 210 and a second cabinet 220 provided at a top of the base 210, and the base 210 is stacked above the top cover 110. The present application further includes a decorative plate 40 detachably connected with the top cover 110 along a radial direction of the drum assembly to at least shield a gap between the first laundry treatment device 10 and the second laundry treatment device 20 and located at a side.
[0045] In the present application, the first laundry treatment device 10 and the second laundry treatment device 20 are stacked in a height direction, so that the overall device is more compact in a vertical space, which can effectively save space. A gap is formed between the first laundry treatment device 10 and the second laundry treatment device 20, and the decorative plate 40 is detachably connected with the top cover 110 along a radial direction of the drum assembly, which can shield the gap between the first laundry treatment device 10 and the second laundry treatment device 20 and located at a side, enhancing the aesthetics of the overall structure. Compared with the related art in which the decorative plate 40 needs to be connected with the first laundry treatment device 10 from the rear side of the first laundry treatment device 10, the present application can first stack the first laundry treatment device 10 and the second laundry treatment device 20, and can be placed against a wall, and then the decorative plate 40 is connected with the first laundry treatment device 10 in a left-right direction of the first laundry treatment device 10. Therefore, when installing the decorative plate 40, the first laundry treatment device 10 and the second laundry treatment device 20 do not need to be moved, and the installation process is more simple and fast. Furthermore, it is not necessary to first install the decorative plate 40 with the first laundry treatment device 10 and the second laundry treatment device 20, and then move the whole, which reduces the complexity and potential risks of the moving process. Understandably, when the first laundry treatment device 10 and the second laundry treatment device 20 are stacked together, the overall size and weight will significantly increase. If the decorative plate 40 has been pre-installed, it is necessary to ensure that the decorative plate 40 will not be damaged or fall off during the moving process, so that the moving process can become more difficult.
[0046] Further, the decorative plate 40 can be detachably connected with the top cover 110 and the base 210 along the radial direction of the drum assembly, which improves the stability of the fixation of the decorative plate 40 and the first laundry treatment device 10 and the second laundry treatment device 20.
[0047] Further, since the first laundry treatment apparatus 10 and the second laundry treatment apparatus 20 are arranged in a stacked manner, the axial direction of the drum assembly, which is internally disposed to treat laundry, is the front-rear direction of the first laundry treatment apparatus 10 and the second laundry treatment apparatus 20, and the opening of the drum assembly is located at the front side of the first laundry treatment apparatus 10 and the second laundry treatment apparatus 20, and the radial direction of the drum assembly is the left-right direction of the first laundry treatment apparatus 10 and the second laundry treatment apparatus 20.
[0048] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 13 and Figure 14 , the decorative plate 40 includes a main body portion 410, which covers the gap between the first laundry treatment apparatus 10 and the second laundry treatment apparatus 20 on the side surface, the first cabinet 120 includes a first side plate 122, the second cabinet 220 includes a second side plate 221, and the first side plate 122, the second side plate 221, the top cover 110, and the base 210 form a relief groove 11, and the main body portion 410 is embedded in the relief groove 11, so that the outer side surface of the main body portion 410 is arranged in a coplanar manner with the outer side surfaces of the first side plate 122 and the second side plate 221. In this way, the main body portion 410 can be prevented from protruding outside the first laundry treatment apparatus 10 and the second laundry treatment apparatus 20, space can be saved, the overall structure can be more compact and beautiful, and dust or impurities can be prevented from falling on the main body portion 410, reducing the difficulty of cleaning.
[0049] The main body portion 410 is snap-connected with the top cover 110 and / or the main body portion 410 is snap-connected with the base 210. That is, the main body portion 410 is snap-connected with at least one of the top cover 110 and the base 210, and the other can be connected in a connection relationship other than snap connection, such as a threaded fastener connection, a plug-in connection, etc. Of course, the main body portion 410 and the top cover 110 and the base 210 can all be snap-connected, which can simplify the installation process of the decorative plate 40, and the user can complete the installation and disassembly of the decorative plate 40 without using special tools or skills. In other embodiments, the main body portion 410 can also be connected to the first laundry treatment apparatus 10 and the second laundry treatment apparatus 20 through a threaded fastener connection or a magnetic attraction connection.
[0050] Referring to Figure 13Further, the main body 410 is provided with a first buckle 411 and a second buckle 412 arranged at intervals, the top cover 110 is provided with a first buckle groove 115 which is open to the horizontal direction, and the base 210 is provided with a second buckle groove 213 which is open to the lower side, the first buckle 411 is buckled into the first buckle groove 115, and the second buckle 412 is buckled into the second buckle groove 213. In this way, the buckling directions of the first buckle 411 and the first buckle groove 115 and the buckling directions of the second buckle 412 and the second buckle groove 213 are not the same, which can make the decorative plate 40 more firmly fixed between the top cover 110 and the base 210 and not easy to loosen or fall off due to external force or vibration.
[0051] Please refer to Figure 13 and Figure 14 In some embodiments, the first buckle 411 comprises a base body 4111 connected with the main body 410 and an elastic buckle hook 4112, the base body 4111 is provided with a fourth mounting hole 4113, the elastic buckle hook 4112 is connected to the hole wall of the fourth mounting hole 4113, and the hook part of the elastic buckle hook 4112 is arranged to protrude out of the fourth mounting hole 4113 towards the lower side. It can be understood that, at a position other than the connection between the elastic buckle hook 4112 and the hole wall of the fourth mounting hole 4113, there is a gap between the elastic buckle hook 4112 and the hole wall of the fourth mounting hole 4113, so that the elastic buckle hook 4112 has a certain deformation ability. When the first buckle 411 is inserted into the first buckle groove 115, the hook part of the elastic buckle hook 4112 will be extruded by the wall surface of the first buckle groove 115, and the elastic buckle hook 4112 can be elastically deformed, i.e. the hook part will bend inward, until the first buckle 411 is completely inserted into the state of the first buckle groove 115, and the elastic buckle hook 4112 is elastically abutted to the inner wall surface of the top cover 110.
[0052] Please refer to Figure 11 Further, the bottom wall of the first buckle groove 115 is formed with a guide inclined surface 1151 which is arranged obliquely from bottom to top in the direction of insertion of the first buckle 411 into the first buckle groove 115. The design of the guide inclined surface 1151 helps the first buckle 411 to be more easily inserted into the first buckle groove 115, and guides the elastic buckle hook 4112 to gradually deform during the insertion process, until the hook part completely enters the first buckle groove 115 and is elastically abutted to the inner wall surface of the top cover 110.
[0053] Please refer to Figure 13In some embodiments, the second buckle 412 includes a connecting portion 4121 and a hook portion 4122 connected together, the connecting portion 4121 is connected to the main body portion 410 at an end away from the hook portion 4122, and the hook portion 4122 is spaced apart from the main body portion 410 and extends upward. In the state that the second buckle 412 is inserted into the second buckle groove 213, the hook portion 4122 elastically abuts against the inner wall surface of the base 210. Since the hook portion 4122 of the present application extends upward and is spaced apart from the main body portion 410, when the hook portion 4122 elastically abuts against the inner wall surface of the base 210, it will be subjected to a downward pressure from the wall surface of the second buckle groove 213, and the hook portion of the elastic buckle 4112 will be subjected to an upward pressure from the wall surface of the first buckle groove 115, the two opposite directions of pressure work together to form a stable clamping force, so that the decorative plate 40 is tightly fixed between the top cover 110 and the base 210. By setting the length of the first buckle groove 115 and the second buckle groove 213, the decorative plate 40 can be limited in the front-rear direction of the clothes treatment apparatus 1.
[0054] Referring to Figure 13 In some embodiments, a plurality of first buckles 411 and a plurality of second buckles 412 are provided, and the plurality of first buckles 411 and the plurality of second buckles 412 are spaced apart in the up-down direction and arranged in an interlaced manner in the length direction of the main body portion 410. The plurality of first buckles 411 and the plurality of second buckles 412 are spaced apart in the up-down direction to form a plurality of fixing points, which can improve the stability of the connection between the decorative plate 40 and the top cover 110 and the base 210. The spacing between the first buckles 411 and the second buckles 412 is uniform, so that the connection surface is more extensive, thereby improving the connection strength. When subjected to external force, the plurality of buckles can share the force together to reduce the risk of damage. The interlaced arrangement of the buckles helps to optimize the stress distribution, so that the stress between the buckles is more balanced, improving the durability and service life of the decorative plate 40.
[0055] Referring to Figure 9 and Figure 13In some embodiments, the decorative plate 40 further comprises a fixing portion 420 connected to one end of the main body portion 410, the fixing portion 420 extends towards one side of the main body portion 410 and is located at the back of the first clothes treatment device 10 and the second clothes treatment device 20; the second clothes treatment device 20 further comprises a back plate 222 fixed to the back of the base 210, the fixing portion 420 is detachably connected to the top cover 110 and detachably connected to the back plate 222. In this way, the fixing portion 420 can fix the first clothes treatment device 10 and the second clothes treatment device 20 at the back side of the clothes treatment equipment 1, and the adapter bracket 30 can fix the first clothes treatment device 10 and the second clothes treatment device 20 close to the front side, under the common action of the adapter bracket 30 and the decorative plate 40, the stability of the stacking of the first clothes treatment device 10 and the second clothes treatment device 20 can be improved, and the main body portion 410 of the decorative plate 40 can also hide the adapter bracket 30, improving the aesthetic appearance.

[0063] The application can increase the thickness of the top cover 110 by setting the height difference between the first table 111 and the second table 112, thereby improving the bending strength and compression resistance of the top cover 110, so that it can better withstand external force and pressure, and prolong the service life. Moreover, the height difference between the first table 111 and the second table 112 can have a positioning effect. Specifically, when the laundry treating apparatus is stacked, the laundry treating apparatus located at the lower part needs to position and limit the laundry treating apparatus located at the upper part. When the height of the first table 111 is higher than the height of the second table 112, the foot 211 of the laundry treating apparatus located at the upper part can be placed on the second table 112, and the first table 111 is located at the inner side of the foot 211 of the laundry treating apparatus located at the upper part and limits the foot 211. When the height of the second table 112 is higher than the height of the first table 111, the foot 211 of the laundry treating apparatus located at the upper part can be placed on the first table 111, and the second table 112 is located at the outer side of the foot 211 of the laundry treating apparatus located at the upper part and limits the foot 211. The application can improve the structural strength of the top cover 110 by setting the height difference between the first table 111 and the second table 112, and can improve the stability of the stacked upper and lower laundry treating apparatuses.
[0064] Please refer to Figure 4In some embodiments, the first platform 111 is centrally located on the top cover 110 and is square-shaped, and the second platform 112 is square-shaped. When the laundry treating apparatus 1 is stacked, the square-shaped first platform 111 or the second platform 112 can better match the bottom feet 211 of the upper laundry treating apparatus 1, providing more stable support. Due to the square layout of the second platform 112 and the first platform 111, the stacked laundry treating apparatus 1 can be well positioned in both horizontal and vertical directions, reducing the risk of shaking and tilting.
[0065] In some embodiments, in the height direction, the height of the second platform 112 is lower than the height of the first platform 111. In this example, since the second platform 112 is located outside the first platform 111, by designing the groove depth of the second platform 112, the first platform 111 can be able to support the bottom surface of the laundry treating apparatus located above. In addition, the second platform 112 can serve as a convenient storage space for placing laundry detergent, fabric softener, and other auxiliary items, or as a temporary platform for users to place other items, making it convenient to use and saving space. When the laundry treating apparatus 1 is running or shaking, the second platform 112 can prevent items placed on the top of the top cover 110 from falling due to shaking. In addition, when the laundry treating apparatus 1 is stacked, the second platform 112 can position the bottom feet 211 of the laundry treating apparatus located above, and since the second platform 112 is located outside the first platform 111, by designing the groove depth of the second platform 112, the first platform 111 can be able to support the bottom surface of the laundry treating apparatus located above, improving the stability of the stacked upper and lower laundry treating apparatuses.
[0066] Please refer to Figure 4 Furthermore, the second platform 112 is recessed to form a reinforcing groove 1121. The reinforcing groove 1121 can enhance the structural strength of the top cover 110. Moreover, the bottom of the top cover 110 is generally provided with multiple reinforcing ribs, and the thickness of some areas of the top cover 110 can be larger, which can cause shrinkage marks on the appearance of the top cover 110 after injection cooling. The reinforcing groove 1121 can reduce the thickness of the area of the top cover 110 provided with reinforcing ribs, making the plastic flow more uniform and reducing the volume shrinkage difference during cooling, thereby reducing the occurrence of shrinkage marks.
[0067] In some embodiments, a third table 113 is further included, which is arranged at the outer circumferential side of the second table 112; and at least a part of the third table 113 is higher than the second table 112 in the height direction. Specifically, the height difference between the first table 111, the second table 112 and the third table 113 can be formed by recessing the second table 112 downward on a plate member and forming the first table 111 and the third table 113, or by protruding the first table 111 and the third table 113 upward on a plate member and forming the second table 112.
[0068] In this way, the second table 112 cooperates with the first table 111 and the third table 113 to define a ring-shaped groove, and when the bottom foot 211 of the upper clothes treatment device is placed on the second table 112, the bottom foot 211 is located in the ring-shaped groove, and the first table 111 and the third table 113 limit the bottom foot 211 from the inner side and the outer side, thereby improving the stability of the stacked two clothes treatment devices.
